I decided I wanted a "snow" wreath this year since we never see snow in this region and I really love how it turned out.
Here's how I made it...
I spread fiber fill over a grapevine wreath and it held pretty well onto the twigs, so I decided not to glue it down. Then I used some glittered ribbon and wound it around the fiber fill covered wreath. I used some floral wire to secure the ribbon in the back, and then I threaded some colorful jingle bell ornaments in the spaces between the glittered ribbon using floral wire, but I think ornament hooks would work just as well. I made a very simple bow out of some of the blue ribbon that I used to wrap around my Christmas tree last year and secured the ribbon with a flower pick from an arrangement I had on my shelf.
The dove is also a Christmas ornament that I thought would look perfect shimmering in the middle.
This wreath idea would work with other ornaments as well, so take a look around and see what you can come with to make your own snow wreath.
It's hard to believe this idea all started when I was inspired to use up some left over fiber fill as snow, and it ended up as a beautiful wreath.
So simple, but it's one of my favorite Christmas projects I've ever done.
