Every year we try to make some homemade ornaments, so this year was no exception.
After seeing a similar bird wreath ornament, ridiculously expensive, I decided to use our supplies and make one, considerably cheaper.
Supplies:
-
Memory wire
-
Faux pine garland
-
Small Styrofoam (or other ) birds
-
Ribbon
I couldn’t find mini wreaths to buy, so I used memory wire instead. It bends and twists extremely easily and to shape it well I used a cup.
Wrapped faux pine garland around it as well as a sateen ribbon. I glued the birdies at the center and applied some white tempera to get a snowy look.
We also made one inspired by Anthropologie, but later about that…
