Our Mardi Gras party was this past weekend and I think it was a big success.
I’ll share more on it later but thought I’d share the door wreath I wiped up a few days before the party.
1) glued burlap strips around the entire wreath 2) cut mardi gras beads once and glued the strands on as I wrapped it around the wreath 3) printed out a, “Krewe de Mac,” sign and laminated it (Since I didn’t want to put our actual last name on the wreath I used a nickname version of it) 4) glued four small strands to the laminated piece and then glued those to the wreathI chose to use purple and pink beads instead of the typical Mardi Gras colors of green, purple, and gold, since our party was right around Valentine’s Day.
Mardi Gras is exactly a week away – hurry up and go order your king cake!
Oh wow. That turned out really well. I like that you didn’t use the typical colors. Hope you have a great Valentines Day!
What a fun wreath! Can’t wait to see your party!
Love the door wreath…
How fun to use the beads!
