This years version of the Christmas tree is inspired by
this one. I still like hers better, but I'm liking mine too. If I could just get the boys to leave those sprigs alone......
O.K. If you read blogs, you have probably seen several people doing this ball wreath. You take a wire hanger and just string ornaments onto it. It is simple, but difficult. I had two problems, I used a heavy gauge wire which made it hard to bend, and the balls kept popping off because they had cheap plastic hanger things. Anyway, the trick is to go ahead and string a bunch on, but plan on hot gluing a bunch too. I spent $6.00 on ornaments at Dollar Tree and used a few I already had. I saw identical wreaths at Pier 1 for $50, so the effort was definitely worth it!
