Bargain Christmas Decor!

This has got to be the cheapest wreath ever made.  The huge wreath was a find at Habitat for Humanity's Restore for $5 ... The great sparkly garland was $2 at a second hand store (still had the original store tag for $32). The ribbon length was cut from a bolt I bought after Christmas last year at Walmart for 75% off.

The skates were a summer find at a yard sale for $3, the snow flakes were 6 to a package at the dollar store and the silhouette of the boy skating was free here at Graphics Fairy.  The glitter was from the dollar store, and the spray glue was $1 at the Restore.

The greenery in the skates was cut from my yard and the lights were $2 after Christmas at Walmart last year, so when all is said and done, the wreath cost less than $15.  Gotta love thrifting, eh?  And here it is to the left with the lights off.

 

Happy Christmas Crafting!!

 

P.S. This is not its permanent placement, it will hang outside, just waiting for my dh to have time to do it.
