DIY Christmas Wreaths Under $5 Project Decorating & Craft Ideas

about a week ago i blogged about how to make your own wreath for under $10! Today, I'm going to show you how to make a wreath (Christmas) for under $5! ENJOY!

WHAT YOU NEED...

• GARLAND (9 ft) $4.00 from target / or $0.99 from 99 cents store
• TINSEL (9 ft) $0.99 from 99 cents store
• Ornaments (Shiny small 16pk) $0.99 from target / 99 cents store
• Ornaments (Glitter medium 8pk) $0.99 from target / 99 cents store
• Any other ornaments/decors of your choice :) / artificial poinsettias $0.99 from 99 cents store

Total amount spent: $4.95 plus tax ($5.38 after tax!)

Make sure to get wire garland, that way you don't need to have a base for the wreaths. the wire will give support and structure to your diy wreath.

now, all you have to do is to loop the wire garland into a circle, this will be the base of your wreath. I loop the garland 6 times fyi

***they also have garland at 99 cents store, but they are sort of too flat for my liking. if you don't care, you can def save $3 and go with the ones you find at 99cents! they also have some at walmart for $1.98, but again, they are not as "fluffy". you get what you paid for. lol

then, wrap the wreath base with tinsel! this step is optional. I thought this will add a little something to my wreath so it wouldn't be so plain.. haha 

***for the first wreath i made, i noticed the tinsel i picked out from target was too thin, it didn't turn out the way i wanted to, so for this one, i went to 99cents store and picked up another pack of tinsel in gold to work with. it turned out much better! :)

finally, add ornaments of your choice! I picked out these christmas ornament balls at the dollar section at target. I picked out metallic (size: small) and glitter (size: medium) finishes. or you can find ball ornaments at 99 cents store too. i also picked up an artificial poinsettias at 99cents store(6 flowers in total) to add to my wreath.

Here's a snowflake door bells decor i found at 99 cents! this has nothing to do with my diy wreath but i thought it was cute and i had to share! :)

ENJOY! & HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

DIY Christmas Wreaths Under $10 Project Decorating & Craft Ideas

I personally think all of the wreaths that are in the market right now are way overpriced. Even the cheapest wreath is going to cost around $20! Here I'm going to show you how to make a wreath (christmas) for under $10! ENJOY!

WHAT YOU NEED...

• GARLAND (9 ft) $4.00
• TINSEL (25 ft) $2.00
• Ornaments (Shiny small 16pk) $1.00
• Ornaments (Glitter medium 8pk) $1.00
• Any other ornaments of your choice :)

Make sure to get wire garland, that way you don't need to have a base for the wreaths. the wire will give support and structure to your diy wreath.

now, all you have to do is to loop the wire garland into a circle, this will be the base of your wreath. I loop the garland 6 times fyi

finally, add ornaments of your choice! I picked out these christmas ornament balls at the dollar section at target. I picked out metallic (size: small) and glitter (size: medium) finishes.

Here is the finish product! Target ran out of the $1.00 red bows (the only one they had left was so dirty! it had coffee stains on it..) So i decided to add/make my own! 

If you haven't noticed, this is the same bow i made back in October (DIY Minnie Mouse Headband)

I paid $0.29 for the red felt sheet. one sheet is enough for the bow and the tassel. check out my DIY Last Minute Halloween Idea Costume Minnie Mouse Mickey Mouse Headband Costume Belt for a step by step tutorial on now to make a bow :)

I added two strips of red felt and hot glued it on the back of the bow to make it a Christmas bow! lol

Here is a picture of my diy wreath! WOOHOO.

ENJOY! & HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
