DIY a Fall Wreath

Using craft sticks a little paint and glue make your own wreath!!!  Dixie Bell Paint coverage is awesome.  You will love using it on your projects!
 
 

Supplies:
Dixie Belle Paint: Flamingo Chalk Mineral Paint and Van Dyke Brown Glaze

Tie a 12 inch piece of  ribbon around the cardboard to use to hang the wreath with when finished.

 
Layer about 50 large craft sticks with tacky glue on the cardboard, set aside to dry.
