I didn't have a Halloween wreath so I looked around and noticed that feather wreaths were really popular but really expensive. So I looked for a cheap alternative.
I went to the dollar tree to see what that had available and I found a pine wreath, it was pretty thin and sparse so I figured it would work. I also found some spider ribbon with wire.
Then I went to the Dollar General and found some black boa's for $1.00 each. I purchased three for this project.
I took the wreath and pushed the pine needles down real good so that it would not pop through the feathers. Then I took my boa's and wrapped them around the wreath hot gluing it a little here and there. I made a bow out of my spider ribbon and attached a spider ring to it.
It turned out pretty nice and after Halloween I will do some clearance shopping and hopefully I will find some extra's to add to it.
This is what the wreath started off as. |
you can see some of the green in the picture but it really isn't that noticeable . |
