DIY Wreath Frame

I have been seeing wreaths draped over different mirrors or frames for a while now. I always thought it was cute and I have a big wall in the bathroom that needs filling... so I got to it!

I got this frame from a thrift store for $2. I sanded, primed and spray painted it white. After that I had to take out about a billion staples that were annoyingly put in the back to keep the frame in. Ok, I'll be honest.... I didn't do it. The man did but I was going to! :)
(Do you think they put enough price tags on it??:)

I got the wreath at Hobby Lobby for $3.00 (plus I used a 40% off coupon so it was under $2) and tied it up with some wide satin ribbon from Walmart.

I pounded a hook into the back to hang it.... That's it! It's so easy and the total cost was under $5 (including the $1 spray paint). It fills the spot on the wall perfectly and didn't cost a lot of money!
Here it is in it's new home! I wish there was some natural light but it's been gloomy for a few days now so my wall colors look really different in the pictures.

           

Hope you're having a great day!!!!!
