Simple Winter Flocked Teardrop Door Swag

Today I’m sharing my simple winter flocked teardrop door swag I made for my front door. As you can see in the photos, I have a very cheery bright yellow door. Normally I love it, but it makes using traditional holiday colors a little difficult. The wreath I’ve used in years past wouldn’t work on this door. I prefer traditional holiday colors with lots of green and pops of red and white, and perhaps touches of other colors mixed in. But with this new-to-me yellow door, I was not loving the idea of using green and red.

I’ve been searching for something that would work and came across this lovely flocked pine teardrop door swag. I love the big flocked pine cones. I wanted it to have a little more body so I added a few more pine picks with smaller pine cones using floral wire I had on hand. Then I added a sparkly white ribbon to finish it off.  I looped the ribbon three times (twisting it so the sparkle was on the outside). I used a piece of floral wire around the center to form the bow and attach it to the swag. The long ends of the ribbons are a separate piece that I attached with floral wire. It came together easily and thanks to good a Michael’s sales and coupons the whole hanging was less than the original price of the swag by itself. 

I think the winter flocked teardrop door swag works well on my cheery yellow door and will be nice even after Christmas. 

What kind of holiday projects are you working on?
