So tell us...have you have kept a binder of images, ideas, recipes and hairstyles. Fashion ideas, home decor, vacation destinations and more?
Well guess what? You're pinning? Well in the physical form!
Pinterest is just that concept...collecting visual ideas into a "binder" or pin board in this case, only without the paper! And even better...you can share you pins with others, and others can share their pins with you and it goes on and on. It's truly quite amazing (and wonderful!)
All this week we've asked our talented team of Designers to find images or pins on Pinterest that inspire them and use those images as the jumping off point for their projects.
We think you'll love what Designer Kristen Swain and Grace Tolman have for you today!

Pinterest Felt Rose Wreath Inspiration

Fall Wreath
GlueArts Designer: Grace Tolman
Supplies:
Glue Arts Glue Gun
Styrofoam wreath
Fall themed ribbon
Felt (use fall colors)
Chipboard tiles- Maya Road
Pattern paper- SEI
Letter Stickers- American Crafts
Pinking shears- Fiskars
I was inspired to make this fall wreath with a flower tutorial that I pinned on Pinterest. The example she made was put into a wreath as well but the original one had more of a love/valentine theme. To make it adapt to the season, I wrapped fall themed ribbon and picked colors of felt that suited the theme as well.
The rose tutorial was so easy to follow and I made three here that I adhered to the wreath with Glue Arts glue gun. I initially just wanted the flowers to be my main focal point in the wreath but after some time looking at it, I decided to add a welcome sign which I made using chipboard tiles that I covered with pattern paper and letter stickers that spelled out my greeting.
In about an hour, I had a beautiful wreath that now adds the perfect “fall” touch to my front door.
