Got this idea from
THIS blog post. She's inspiring! I love her stuff.
I got the wreath for $1.00 and the frame for $.75, both at DI. Black spray paint was $.94, plus I used some glossy sealant to make the wreath shiny. The ribbon I got from a friend
(Thanks, Holly!) The monogram is just a piece of sketch paper that I colored on and cut to size.
Here's the before:

I like

Overall, this was a
fun project and I enjoyed it!
