I was looking for a winter wreath. Do I even need to say I wanted it to be simple, classic and cheap? Well that wreath doesn't exist. Or at least, not anywhere I looked.
So I went off to the Michael's sale section to find an okay looking wreath that I could rework.
I found this messy eucalyptus wreath for 80% off.
Then I went looking for some simple green and white foliage.
I removed the bow and wretched flowers from the wreath then started to add the green foliage to the wreath attaching the pieces using a hot glue gun.
Two words I kept in mind while adding the foliage were restraint and symmetry. This eucalyptus wreath was actually really beautiful on it's own so I didn't want to add foliage pieces that were too bulky, also for a more classic looking wreath I wanted it to be fairly symmetric.
This wreath ended up costing just under $25 and took me only a few minutes to rework. We get tons of compliments on it and it smells wonderful.
Welcome Winter!
