We have it hung on the outside of our bedroom door, it fits perfectly.
The dried flowers are first sprayed with hairspray to stiffen them and then several heavy coats of clear lacquer is applied. The hairspray helps the flowers avoid drooping when sprayed with the clear paint.
I especially like the way the refection in the glass appeared. Special thanks to Skeeter for the sweet gums, without her I never would of made such a pleasing piece.

You did a great job. I might have to go look for some to make one myself. Ah, no, on second thought I've got enough to do.
It looks great Dawn!!
Happy Pink Saturday to all and have a good weekend.
Great looking wreath. Almost tempted to look for some "gums". Think I'll wait. 32º at 9:30--the inside feels better.
Happy Pink Saturday.
Pink Saturday always makes the cold days in northern Michigan so much warmer. Thank y♥u for sharing with us this week. Your bl♥g is beautiful.
Wow, that wreath turned out gorgeous. Nice work! We are all cleaned up from the storm, and now I see there is another storm predicted for Monday. I haven't heard how much. Last storm, we got about 6 inches. I'm glad you didn't get the whole foot you thought you would. I want spring! Hugs, Kathleen
That's adorable! Happy Pink Saturday. ♥

That's so pretty! I've never thought about using those pods for a base to a wreath! Now I'll be looking for them everywhere.
Have a wonderful pink weekend♥
That very pretty. It reminds me of last week when our little grandson was here and we went for a walk and he collected up tons of those, he calls them little balls. He was so cute everytime he picked one up he would say oh" Have a great day.
What a great wreath! Thank you for sharing!!
