Shag Wreath

My sweet in-laws took my sweet boys to San Antonio for 2 days and one of those days my husband had to go out of town for work. SO... I got to work in my classroom for the entire time! Alone!
I was feeling tired frustrated at the end of one of the days and decided to go raid the teacher section at Dollar Tree (which was awesome) and got a wreath form to decorate for my door. 
I had a sneaking suspicion that making something to decorate my room with would make me feel a lot better. I was totally right. I know the pictures aren't the best but I took these at midnight so there was a slight lack of natural light.

The first thing I did was turn on The Nanny and popped some popcorn.

This is the wreath form I found. They had 2 different sizes.
This is the fabric I choose, I already had a lot of it. I cut it into strips 3 inches wide and 12 inches long.
I folded the strips in half length wise and then tied double knots 
Just keep tying and squish them together until you're done. You can either fluff them up or lay them flat.
To hang it with I cut a ribbon and tied it around the form. So easy. So cute. So many options.
