Roses in October? Why not?!?

Hi Friends. I recently received a BIG box of crafty fun from Martha Stewart Crafts. Check. It. Out!

Stencils & Paintable Plastic… yes seriously Paintable Plastic!

Brushes, Tools and Liquid Guilding… it was a crafter's dream come true! Inspired by the bright Martha Stewart Paint colors, I decided to create an Easy Autumn Rose Wreath.
Easy Rose Wreath - Yesterday on Tuesday #marthastewarthalloween

Supplies: Large Twig Weath Form, Pincones, Wooden Acorns, Canvas Material, Martha Stewart Multi Surface High Gloss Acrylic Craft Paint in Purple Yam and Geranium. Martha Stewart Multi Surface Satin Acrylic Craft Paint in Carrot and Granny Smith. Martha Stewart Crafts Holiday Icon Stencils, Martha Stewart Crafts Natural Bristle Brushes, Martha Stewart Crafts Stencil Tape. Not pictured — pruning shears and hot glue.

Looks at these luscious shades!

First use pruning shears to cut the tops off of the pinecones.

Martha Stewart Craft Paint truly does work on all kinds of surfaces… including pinecones!

It only took one coat of "Granny Smith"…

Gorgeous!

Then paint the wooden acorns. One coat again!

Place the stencil where you want it.

It's easy to make really clear images with the stencil.

Gently lift up the stencil.

Voila!

I love how the leaves turned out.

Use hot glue to add acorns to the rose and to add pinecone roses to the wreath.

It's fun having "non-traditional" fall colors in a project.

Thank you to Martha Stewart Crafts for all the amazing products!

Gotta get MORE Martha?

So pretty! I love the vibrant colors against the dark brown! How clever to give natural elements like pine cones and acorns a fresh new look with colorful paint :)

What a great idea! I love all the fun ideas I’ve seen using natural elements. I would NEVER have thought to turn pinecones into flowers. Those are adorable!
