I wouldn't consider myself a crafty person by any means (as with cooking, I don't have a tremendous amount of patience in the department), but Christmas always seems to bring out what little DIY inclinations I have. (And, of course, a trip to good old Michaels helps too -- their aisles are truly the stuff that Pinterest dreams are made of).
While I love the look of a classic evergreen and holly wreath, I thought I'd opt for something a bit easier...and really, this wreath couldn't be easier to put together! All you need is a basic, barebones wreath frame (like this one from Michaels), a garland of some sort to twine around it, and a handful of bright baubles to tie on with whatever discreet string or ribbon you have on hand. Simple, right?! You can go with multicoloured baubles, or have a theme of one or two colours -- I went with a silver and pink look, with several different types of pink baubles for a bit of contrast/interest.
(I initially mistyped "Wreath" as "Wrath" in the title of this post... Somehow I don't think a super simple DIY on Christmas Wrath is something you'd be too interested in ;).
Great DIY! I love it:)

Wow! it looks great. You can buy a simple unadorned wreath at Michael's craft store for $3.99. I got one on sale a few days ago to use as my Advent wreath. It looks great. Decorated wreaths are very expensive. It pays to be creative!!
ReplyDeleteI love this DIY! I've been looking at ornament wreaths at all the stores but they're too pricey. This is such a fab alternative!
