It was a sad weekend in my part of the world. More on that later when I feel up to it. But for now, here's what I finished with my acorns on Friday night.
Acorns: Plucked from the ground and cooked at 175 degrees for a while to dry them.
Wreath: Wooden with the ability to put a photo or sign in the middle. $4 at Walmart.
Paint: Martha Stewart, sample size ($2.95), "Blueberry Pie."
Glue: Low heat hot glue.



It is tied outside with a white ribbon on our door. The photo does not do it justice. I should take a photo of the door in natural light instead of this over-exposed flash photography photo.... I'm also considering using poster putty to make it not bang against the door whenever the door is opened. I'm worried about losing acorns.
Those are a lot bigger than most of the acorns we find around here! And I love them purple! You could spray them a different color and use it for a ton of holidays!!
