House of Hydrangeas

If you are a fan of the House of Hydrangeas fan page on Facebook, then you might have seen that I was busy crafting this weekend.  I got the crafting itch on Friday and ran out to Hobby Lobby to pick up supplies for some projects I've been mulling over for awhile.  So Saturday, while Jon was watching one of his DVRed shows that I have no interest in, I started making a mess in the floor the project I'm going to show you today--a Spanish moss spring wreath.

I need to purchase a few more ornaments from the thrift store, and mine will be complete.  I'm going with a gold and cream color scheme.  And since all of my ornaments came from the thrift store, most of them are older and already have an antiqued look.  The total cost of the project will be around $12! Here's an example.
