Saw some cute and super easy to make paper ladybugs on Pinterest (original source here). For mine I used 4" square sheets of cardstock & sharpies to draw in the details. They of course needed a place to hang out. I decided a wreath would work well. It is a 14" floral foam wreath base wrapped with ribbon yarn. Not sure if I care for the color of the yarn, it was given to me a few years ago and this is the best use for it I've been able to come up with. The yarn and ladybugs are secured in place with sewing pins which will make it easy enough to change if I decide I can't stand the yarn.
