Spring Chevron Wreath

This weekend I was able to get some Spring crafting started.  Spring is one of my absolute favorite times of the year.  Not only is it my birthday but I love all the fresh and fun colors!  I recently picked up a bunch of different colors of this great chevron fabric at Joanns.  
I cut the fabric into strips and started wrapping it around my wreath form.
Once I ran out, I cut another strip and placed it like I've shown you in the picture.  Fold over the unfinished edges and pin it on top of where we left off.  Once you continue to wrap you can later go back and remove the pin. 
This is what it looks like after removing the pin, it stays folded over in place all by itself.  
I found these adorable foam pompom's from Target's Easter section, for $3.50.  I used my husbands tin snips to trim the bottom off.  Trimming removed two of the leaves but I was able to hot glue them on top of the trimmed section to make it look great.  
 I'm loving how it turned out!  So fresh and fun for Spring!
I would love to see any of your Spring crafts, please leave me a comment with a link:)

    It turned out really well! Looks absolutely adorable... I think I might try a fabric wreath like this next,I have only been making yarn ones lately. What type of wreath form did you use? I usually use a pool noodle, do you think that would work? Thanks so much for sharing this!

      I've never tried the pool noodle Krista, need to give it a try. I just use a wreath form from the craft store. I'm sure any would work great! Thanks for stopping in :)

    So totally adorable. As I was scrolling down to get to the comment form, I noticed in your side bar the 3 day potty training. Ok, totally going there next. I have been struggling for weeks on end with this potty training thing and have tried so many methods. Sorry, totally unrelated to the wreath.

      Hi Shannon, thanks so much!! I've been wanting to make my pics bigger for some time. When I would try they would overlap my side bar info but I finally figured out how to adjust the width of the blog! So pics are now xl!!! Thanks for your friendly tip it gave me the push to try to fix it, sure glad I did!
