This is beautiful ! I hope you baked the acorns for a while before using them, though. My sister & I made some acorn wreaths several years ago . She hung hers in the bathroom and months later found little worms all over the place. Seems they hatched from the acorns !
After that we either zapped naturals for a few seconds in the microwave or heated them in a 250 degree oven for 1/2 hour & had no more problems. Good luck !

My friend did bake the acorns and we found them on the floor by a bunch of trees. They last a long time on the wreath. No troubles with bugs or worms. Glad you guys like it.

Oh! I love this wreath very much! How long did it take to collect all those acorns? I'm in the process of making a wreath with wine corks (I drink a bottle of wine about once a year!) and it's taking me forever to collect enough corks!
