Ornament Wreath

Sorry for not posting sooner! I'm busy with finals and other drama that has prevented me from having any free time these days! I started this ornament wreath forever ago, but I put it aside to do homework assignments. However, I just finished it, and wanted to share my creation!

What you'll need:

• Foam wreath
• Ribbon
• Enough ornaments to cover your foam wreath (I think I used 5-6 tubes of ornaments from Walmart for $3.50 each)

First, gather your materials

I had to paint the styrofoam wreath with white acrylic paint, because Michael's only had forrest green ones...yuck...(good for floral arraignments but UGLY).

Next, I cut my ribbon about how long I wanted my wreath to hang and then hot glued the ends of the ribbon onto the back of the wreath.

The ornaments from Walmart all had these little silver bits on the end which I didn't want. So I just removed them by popping them off and throwing them away.

Once the silver bits were popped off, I was able to stick the ornaments into the wreath by pressing them into the foam. After I pressed each ornament into the wreath, I pulled them back out and slathered some hot glue on them so they would stay in place. Then I glued each ornament onto the wreath.

Here it is about halfway done. Make sure to have fun with it! The ornaments dont have to be symmetrical at all-- I think all of the fun is having all over the place and a little crazy!
