   Beautiful! I love all the colors, I need this on my front door! I may just have to make one, a “W” of course 🙂

   Melissa, I just love this idea and it looks amazing against that blue door. If I had to get married all over again ( thankfully I am not) this would be perfect with fresh stems too!,

   I just love that! I was trying to think what to put on my studio/cottage doors and this is perfect. Now to get to a craft/hobby store. I live more than an hour away from any but it would be well worth the trip!

   Wow, what other word could express how awesome, gorgeous, spectacular your monogram is, what a fantastic job you did. Did you have all those items at home already? You almost outdid yourself this time.
   I’d so love to make something like yours, you seem to make things like that without any strain. Is making florals your specialty? Great job Melissa

    This is just breathtaking and what a fabulous job with your tutorial.I’d love to make one, but I just don’t see the letter P looking as great as your pretty S.
    I pinned it for others to try!

    Gorgeous project and excellent tutorial! Since my budget is limited, I’m saving my Jo-Anne and Michaels coupons to gather supplies for future projects. I find that sometimes making things myself can get costly. Just curious what the cost was for this project?

    Hi Melissa: Love this tutorial, so many uses for a floral monogram, birthdays, anniversaries,and of course weddings. I’m a professional floral designer and hope you don’t mind me suggesting a simple extra step to your excellent tutorial. Leave stems approx. 1″ to 1 1/2″ long (just as long as they’re shorter than the depth of foam) and prior to inserting, add a dab of hot glue to the ends and along the stems then press firmly into the foam. Try to avoid re-insertions as this will weaken the foam. Adding glue to the floral stems will lengthen the life of the wreath considerably. Think I’ll make one of these for an upcoming baby shower. Thanks for posting!

    I love it but I don’t understand how you added the flowers 🙁 Did you stick the stems through the foam or through the chicken wire? It really is stunning

    So, since these are silk flowers, wouldn’t it be any easier just to use styrofoam? Cut the letter out of styrofoam glue it on cardboard for extra stability and use either glue. In my case I’d use my floral picks and cover the sides with moss.

      Leah…if using silk,flowers, I would use a paper mache form. Hot glue and styrofoam is kinda funky….

    Melissa, I just adore your monogram wreath. New to your site & just saw it. When I had a wedding business years ago, we used to make them often. We just used Styrofoam sheets cut into initial and glued flowers (using Elmer’s glue since hot glue tends to melt Styrofoam; newer low-temp guns may work ok though). I made one for myself a couple of years ago using a pool noodle and wire coat hanger to shape. My initial is C, so very easy but others would be simple too. Pool noodles are really dense so they really hold the flowers without gluing but you could still glue if you want. From one Southern Gal to another, I have to say you nailed it and certainly deserved the win. Go Girl!
