I’ve always wanted a fresh Christmas wreath, but never felt I could buy one because we always get a real Christmas tree, and they’re expensive enough. But I love wreaths and love that they can be made out of anything. A few months ago I went online to see if you could buy the wire circles like Lyle Dabb uses to make his wreaths. I found out that you could and that they were very inexpensive ($1.50 for 12). I only wanted one so I looked at my local craft store and found that they sold something similar. So when we picked out our Christmas tree the man trimmed it up for us and asked if I wanted to keep them trimmings. I made this wreath out of those trimmings plus a few clippings from a nearby tree to add some variety. I’ll make a wreath for anyone who will come and pick it up! Sometimes it’s nice to be poor. I had so much fun making it and I never would have made one myself if not for lack of money.

Wow! It looks like a pro made it. Good job.
Awesome--it looks better than Martha Stewart could do!
Niiiice.....I think you should put some red candy on it to simulate holly berries...Or just find some holly berries. Owen is awesom....he looks cute in those pictures.
