What Our Crew Would Do- Michelle B

Hey there fellow crafters, this is Michelle B. from The Wood Connection! Halloween is by far my favorite holiday, so what better DIY craft to do than a Halloween one? Today I'm going to show you a tutorial for a Halloween Bat Wreath.

First you will need to get all of your supplies:

Wood Connection Supplies:

Tulle- $.50 per yard (I used 2 yds.)

Spider- $.25 each

Bats- $.75 (I used 3)

Black Paint- $1.29

Black Glitter- $4.95

Paint Brush- $.29

Other Supplies:

10” Vine Wreath (Hobby Lobby)- $3.99

Gray spray paint (I used Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch in satin granite)- $3.87

Note: Hobby Lobby always has 40% off coupons on their website! Print one off and save yourself a few extra dollars next time you go there!

Step One: Spray paint your wreath. I put two coats of spray paint on mine. I love Rust-Oleum spray paint! It does 2 times the coverage with one coat and you can even spray upside down with it.  

                            

Step Two: While the wreath was drying I went to work on my bats. I love glitter! It just adds that special sparkle to your project. We have an awesome tutorial for glittering on our blog that you can see here.

 Step Four: Hot glue gun your bats to the wreath.

                            

Step Five: I then tie your tulle onto the wreath and hot glue gunned my spider into the center of the bow where it's knotted.

Step Seven: Hang up your wreath and show off your cute new craft!
