Today, my craftiness has stumbled upon an ornament wreath. I found this adorable idea from Eddie Ross, and couldn't help but try it myself.
Supplies:
Ornaments
Wire Hanger
Glue
Ribbon/Bow (optional)
I got my supplies at the local Dollar Store. Another idea is to pick up supplies on an after Christmas sale. Pick up a bunch of different colors to make wreaths for every season.
First, take a wire hanger and open it up. Shape the hanger into a circle (or whatever shape you desire your wreath to be)
Next, start putting your bulbs on the wire. If the tops seem loose, add a dab of glue on the tops to secure the hangers to the bulb.
Continue adding bulbs of different sizes and colors. You really can't go wrong.
Once all the bulbs have been added, curl the hanger into the wreath shape if it has gotten misshapen from the process. (Mine did)
Wrap the wires around each other with a pair of pliers. Here, you can add a ribbon or bow if you wish. I couldn't find one I liked at the Dollar Store, so I'm still in search.
Hang your wreath and enjoy! If you used glass bulbs, be sure to hang it inside only!
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!
