Christmas Wreaths

Christmas is right around the corner and I'm always cutting corners to save money or to make money.

I Bought a couple Christmas trees used fake ones Now that I have had them a while I have used them to make Christmas wreaths . I see them and with the money made I buy a new tree and Christmas gifts for the family. I Take the branches and lay them out by size. All you need to make the wreath its self is the branches. Take the large ones and bend them to form a circle, working your way around you take the smaller branches on the branch and twist them a couple at a time all the way around the wreath shape to hold them together and in place. Now the fun of making the wreath full starts you take the smaller branches and fill it in to hold them in place you take branches from the bottom one from the left and one from the right and wrap them around to the front of the filler branch you just layed on top of the big braches you made the circle with, twist them together tight and work your way around until it is the fullness you want. Wrap a set of lights around it and hot glues xmas things around it. tah dah you have a cheap homemade wreath that you can sell any where from $15-$20 bucks or more I do it every year. The one I finished has red lights, a small stuffed santa mid top with a large gold bell on the bottom with red bows through out the wreath. I have sold it already for $22.00 and it cost me $3.00 to make

enjoy have fun with xmas crafts good way to make a little xtra gift money.
