Here is my new wreath for Winter. It was super easy to make, and cost only a few dollars.
Here is what you will need:
Cardboard
Yarn
Plastic Snowflakes ($1 @ Walmart)
A Glitter Star (1$ @ Walmart)
Hot Glue
Exacto Knife
Scissors
Optional (faux pearls)
You will need one large kitchen bowl, and one small bowl, to use as a stencil for your wreath. I cut the cardboard out with an exacto knife. Then I wrapped my fat yarn around it, until the cardboard was completely covered. I glued down the end of the yarn to the back side of the wreath. Next I cut the string off of the star ornament. I used this small piece of string to make a hanger for my wreath on the backside. I used hot glue and a snowflake to make it pretty.
Then I continued to hot glue the snowflakes, star ornament, and some faux pearls, to the front of the wreath. For only a few bucks, I am pleasantly pleased with how it turned out.
Happy Winter time!

ReplyDeleteI love the idea of having a wreath that can be used even after the holidays. It seems like after you take down all the Christmas decor the house seems so empty. http://afewofmyfavoritethings-penni.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I just love the sparkles and glitter (that aren't toooo overwhelming, but still super-cute) and the fact that it was such a frugal project is even more awesome! : )

ReplyDeleteDuring these times frugal is right on my budget, and then it's beautiful to beat. I loved the idea of cutting out your wreath, I wouldn't of thought of that. Being a knitted I like the chunky yarn. Really frugally lovely. I'm hoping you will share this over at Sunday's Best Party going on now. Sharing ideas is a good thing!
