Craft: Making Christmas Wreaths

Making Christmas Wreaths

Making Christmas Wreaths

I love to hang wreaths all around my home for the holidays. I decorate with any and everything!

Tip one - hot glue! Glob it on your items and stick them to the live greens!

Tip two - spray paint! I spray the entire wreath with clear. It helps it to last longer (mine stay up and green all year long inside the house) and it adds a great glossy shine to the cut holly, greens, cones and other decorations! I use other color paints as well, such as gold, burgundy etc. to add color to the items I pick from my yard, seed pods, dried flowers, sticks, that I glue to my wreaths to add interest.

The best tip of all three, use any and everything on your wreath. A little gold spray transforms most anything! Happy decorating!
