Lima Bean Wreath




I came across this post on All Things Thrifty a while back, and even bought my lima beans. All I was waiting for was the styrofoam wreath form...waiting to find the right one and with a coupon! Well, last week while at Hobby Lobby I jumped all in and bought my wreath form and some awesome avocado spray paint! I got the primer at Lowe's.

This project took me about 2 hours to hot-glue the lima beans to the wreath form. I primed then painted it in the avocado color. I used scrap fabric from my sister's bridesmaid dress (from my wedding) to hang the wreath. I didn't really care that some of the hot glue got stringy and left some of it on (even though my little brother noticed!).


Oh well, I love it, that's all that matters! Ignore my ugly door and red curtain, looks like Christmas, eh? Well, my weekend project will be trying to sew a new curtain for the door.
