Favorite project so far




A few weeks ago the girls got together for a Friday night Pinterest party. We were making ornament wreaths.  This project was a bit time consuming but after some cocktails and appetizers our creativity came out.



We started with a metal hanger and shaped it into a circle. ( Next time I would be sure to spend a little more time at making the circle this proved to be rather important in the final product.  We then glued all the ornament tops to the ornaments, using a hot glue gun.  From there we began to put the ornaments onto the hanger. We had to obviously unhook the hanger so both ends were open. The ornaments used were different sizes, as well as textures.  After a few attempts at loading them onto the wire we decided it would look best to alternate the shapes, colors, and textures.  Once the wreath was full we closed up the circle. Each of us hung our wreaths to let the ornaments settle into place.  At that point we used the hot glue gun to fill in any holes.

 All our hard work =
