Join me today as I decorate a floral Christmas wreath. I love doing crafts this time of year and wreath making has always been a hobby I have enjoyed. I've been making wreaths since I was a little girl. My parents still display the ones I have made in their home so they definitely have lasting power! I hope you enjoy watching the tutorial in today's video.
I purchased everything from a local craft store, but for your convenience I have listed all of the supplies below to the best of my ability. If you don't plan to make a wreath this holiday season, a good idea would be to wait until the after Christmas sales to get your faux florals at a heavy discount. I reuse a lot of my crafts supplies every year, making this process very affordable for me.
You will need floral wire, wire cutting scissors, hot glue gun, poinsettia flowers, magnolia flowers, plaid Christmas ribbon, grapevine wreath, faux berry sprigs, pine cone sprigs, frosted pine cone (an alternative option).

Comment of the Week
I received such great advice regarding onion chopping from Monday's freezer meals video. Many people suggested refrigerating the onions, some suggested dunking them in water, others suggest special onion goggles. The most voted up comment came from Janna G, who wrote: To not cry when cutting onions, put the onion in the freezer for half an hour, works great.
Thank you, Janna! I will try this technique out and report back!
I hope you enjoyed today's tutorial. Let me know if you like to make wreaths and what your method is. Your comment could be chosen as comment of the week on the blog. Be sure to check back on the blog tomorrow for a special holiday styling guide from Halsbrook. See you then!
