For this project I grabbed some of the flat bottom marbles/pebbles from my stash that can be found at the dollar tree and also grabbed a marker and ruler.

Friday Night Shabby Chic (ness)

Then I took some twine that I had in my stash that was also a Dollar Tree purchase and wrapped the twine to cover the entire wreath. Next I gathered my goodies from the Dollar Tree and organized how I wanted the wreath to look when finished. I purchased the hat only for the lettering. A dollar for some firm sparkly letters I figured it was worth it. I used the foam squares to make a rainbow and instead o...
