After talking with Erinn yesterday, she figured out that what was off about the wreath was scale. The rosettes were just too small.
So last night I ripped the flowers off, made up some much bigger ones and tried again. I played around with a few arrangements and settled on one that I like a LOT more.
I think I'm still going to take the advice many of your offered yesterday and hang it from a nice, big fall-ish ribbon too.
This picture also reminds me that I need to finish staining/poly-ing the mantel.

We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Re: DIY Wreath, take 2
Thanks guys!
Making the big flowers was kind of fun. The green one used almost an entire 8.5x11 sheet of felt!

Very nice. I like the variation in the sizes of the rosettes. Cute!
This does look better. Love it!
Yep, that was it. The bigger flowers do the trick.
