Flowers and Lace Wreath

I made this wreath for $8 and it was so simple.

I took a plain wreath from Hobby Lobby...

Hot glued two small pieces of lace around one side....

And then cut the stems off some faux white flowers and hot glued them on.

All finished!

Gold Tack Wreath

I made this wreath out of Dollar Tree thumb tacks and a styrofoam wreath! The ribbon I already had from a different project so it all worked out.

Price: 

5 boxes of tacks - $5

Styrofoam Wreath - $2

=$7 wreath

I used a box that held 300 and used almost all of the boxes, that's almost 1500 tacks. 

I really lucked out finding them at Dollar Tree though, I might have paid twice that for 1500 if not.

I got the wreath from Michaels, cheap and durable!

Then started the hard part, I started around the edges and worked my way in. Every once in a while, a tack wouldn't stick well and I would fire up the hot glue gun to make sure they don't fall out!

15 minutes here, 5 minutes there, as time consuming as it is, if you space it out, it really wasn't a burden at all!

Then I just tied the back ribbon around and I'm convinced any color ribbon would work, I just happened to have this one!

Now I just enjoy my beautiful $7 gold tack wreath.
