super grover in "prisoner of the curly ribbon wreath"

I have been seeing this absolutely fabulous curly ribbon wreath project all over the web. My bbff, Kim, initially sent me over the link and I have been dreaming about it non-stop. I love this idea..Easy and cool....I attempted to follow the excellent tutorial on Embellished Bayou, but I had to make a few adjustments. I could not find the premade curly ribbon bows in my party color palette. Bummer..I wound up buying four colors of the curling ribbon and made my own. I also used a different wreath base than the tutorial shows. I also wound up tying the ribbons around instead of stapling or gluing.

I kind of attached Super Grover to the wreath by taking pieces of the curly ribbon and binding his hands and pulling them tightly. I also tied him around the legs. He appears to be an inmate, or a prisoner of the wreath...I have to laugh, that's funny! I also added some silver star wire garland and a few party blowouts for fun!

It took longer then I thought it would, but it is beyond adorable and the birthday boy was over the moon when he saw it...Worth every second...and every individual ribbon curl I had to make with my scissors:) LOL!
