Remember back in May when I auctioned off a monogrammed succulent wreath to benefit Alabama tornado relief efforts? The winner of that wreath was the lovely Kim over at NewlyWoodwards. Thank you SO much, Kim for all of your generosity, and thanks so much to everyone who bid on the wreath. Guess what Kim {finally} has coming to her this week? 
And yes, I realize this auction happened, um, five months ago now.
I am SO sorry to Kim for making her wait this long on her wreath. I’d like to blame it on the fact that Urban Outfitters had the “W” wire form on backorder until nearly August. But then I have to blame the rest of the time on my pure laziness and lack of motivation. 
But, finally it’s finished. Yahoo!! Sorry it’s so late arriving to you, Kim! Thanks for being so patient with me. 🙂 Hope you enjoy your wreath for a long time!
I love it and am super excited to get it. Can I hang it up right away or should I wait?
Thats so cute. Will you share now how to make one? If you did back in May I didnt know about your blog back then.
Thanks
Erika
Hey Kim! I’m glad you like it! I’ll email you more info about it when I send it. I think it’s gonna need to lie flat for a while so it can grow some roots. I hope it makes it in one piece!
Hey Erika! Here is my tutorial on how I made the wreaths. http://unskinnyboppy.blogspot.com/2011/05/sucker-for-succulents-diy-succulent.html
I followed this same pattern today except instead of green floral wire I used jute rope to “tie” the plants into place. I just wound it around and around the form and weaved it in and out of the plants. Looks much better than the green! 🙂
Thanks for asking!
