wendy van
Today I would like to tell you how to make a Christmas wreath. I make several of these every year. They are a lot of fun to make and they are very easy to do. You can be as creative as you would like and you can choose your color scheme.

Items that you will need

Artificial pine wreath

Ribbon

Christmas lights (50 count)

Christmas bulbs (9 of them)

Christmas picks that have drums and presents

Glue gun

Glue sticks

How to make your Christmas Wreath

The first thing that you are going to do is to make sure that your wreath is fluffed up. Take the branches and make sure that they look full and that the wreath is in a circle shape.

Take your Christmas lights and weave them in and out of the wreath branches.

Think of your wreath as a clock. Glue your Christmas bulbs at 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and 9 o'clock. There will be 3 bulbs each time. You pick the colors.

Next you are going to add your Christmas picks that have drums and presents. You will glue these at 1-2 o'clock, 4-5 o'clock, 7-8 o'clock, and 10-11 o'clock.

Twelve o'clock is for your ribbon. You are going to create a bow or buy one that is already made. Glue it at 12 o'clock.

Now you have a beautiful Christmas wreath. You can add some pinecones to it as well. These give it a very homey feel. You can hang these wreaths on your front door if you would like. You just have to make sure that you have some place to plug in your lights. They look very beautiful at night time when the lights are turned on it.

Here is a recommendation of a color scheme that makes a beautiful wreath. This year I am getting a lot of orders for purple and silver. Purple and silver is just absolutely gorgeous. I use purple bulbs and silver bulbs. My ribbon is silver also. My drums and presents are silver as well as purple. As I stated before, have fun choosing your color scheme. Some other ideas are blue and silver, red and gold, green, red, and gold, and red and silver. I know that you are going to have a blast making these wreaths. Have fun.
