Make a Vintage Ornament Wreath (tutorial)!!

Do you have a collection that you love to display at Christmas? I bought some vintage Christmas ornaments about 10 years ago. They are scratched up with wear but beautiful to me. I love to think of all of the Christmases these ornaments have seen, the memories they have made in all of those years!!

I have put them on my tree over the years, but sadly a few have been dropped and been broken. So this year I decided that I wanted to find a way to display these little treasures that will show them off and keep them safe. I bought a white wreath at Michaels for $5. It’s a little retro looking and I thought it would be perfect to display my vintage ornament collection.

Here’s how I made my wreath:

• I wanted to display the ornaments without ruining them. I took some wire and attached the ornaments with wire, twisting the wire securely. That way I can take them off whenever I want. But they are secure enough that they will be safe.

• I added a few newer ornaments to fill in the wreath and add a little bling.

• Then I added a bow to the side.

This wreath took me 1/2 hour to make and I love looking at it in my kitchen. It really shows off my little ornament collection!!

I hope YOU are having a great December and making memories with the people you love. Thanks for letting me share my little project with you!!
