Wood Bead Wreath

I love the simplicity of this wreath….and how modern it is. The softness of the flowers and the wood-grain help to balance everything out. Come next season, swap out the flowers and you’re good to go! The other great thing is that you can make one in about 20 minutes for just a few dollars. Who doesn’t love that!
