After each Holiday, decor items go on sale and it's the right time to grab a few things from 50 to 90% off. I usually grab couple of things to replace the D.O.A of the year. This time I bought a few things for flower arrangements, at 90% off who can argue. So with $3 worth of supplies and some left over tulle from my stash, I created my Valentine's wreath out of Christmas cast offs.
I just use 5 branches of red berries twisted together and wrapped the raspberry tulle, cut in 3" wide strips, to conceal the wires. Then with the left over tulle, I made a bow to hang the wreath with.

ReplyDeleteVery pretty - the raspberry tulle is lovely.
ReplyDeleteToday was the first day that I've gone shopping in a real store since Christmas. There wasn't much left at Walmart. :)

Love this! And especially making Christmas decorations pull double duty ... my kind of craft.
ReplyDeleteI've thought the same thing about repurposing some of those pretty Christmas things, plus you can't go wrong with tulle.
