I'm slowly trying to add a little Halloween to the house. As I've mentioned before, I'm not a big fan of Halloween, especially the scary and gory aspects! But, there's got to be a way to add a spooky twist with the things I like!
We all know that it all starts with the front door! Why should wreaths be saved for the holiday season? With that in mind, I headed to Michael's to trick(pun intended!) out my front door.
It goes without saying that fake flowers are my least favorite thing to use in design and decor. But, it's Ohio in October so using anything living is not possible or cost effective. I was really surprised at the options available! My favorite thing to use in any arrangement I design is texture. It's difficult to find things that aren't real that have the texture of the real deal! Not only was able to get my beloved textural elements, I also found some pretty close to the real deal greenery and flowers.
This is the first time I've attempted to make a wreath with faux flowers and I'm thrilled with the results!
I found moss, thistle and dusty miller to give the wreath texture.
Do greet visitors at the front door with a little bit creepy holiday spirit?
