How To Dress Up Your Own Wreath.

I was at the store today and I was blown away by how expensive their wreaths were! Literally up to $130! Are the insane?

I thought it wouldn’t be that hard to make my own since there was no way in hell I would ever spend that much on a wreath!

I decided to use a real wreath rather than an artificial one.

This is a little more costly at $25, you could get an artificial for $15-$20 but I love the fresh pine smell.

Although, the perk with artificial is it’s an investment you only have to make once!

I had extra ornaments and bells I had laying around that I thought would look really cute on the wreath.

I bought a big bow $5 and some green pipe cleaner (to tie the ornaments and bells in place) for $1.

1. I started out by cutting my pipe cleaner into about 2 1/2 inch pieces. (you can use green floral wire as well but I find it a little hard to cut and to work with)

Thread it through the opening of your ornaments or bells and tie it securely with the ornament facing up securing in the back of each branch as to not see the pipe cleaner. Make sure it is secure and cut off the excess.

Rotate evenly around your wreath leaving room for your bow at the bottom center.
