Holiday Project: Wire hanger wreath

Here's a super simple Christmas wreath tutorial that comes from decorator and stylist Eddie Ross.

Take one of these...


and bend it into the form of a circle. Then, grab your glue gun and as many round ornaments in varying sizes as you can find. You'll need about 80 in all.



To secure the metal cap to the ball, dab a little hot glue and press. That way, the cap will remain attached as the ornaments are strung.



Next, untwist the end of the hanger, then string one ornament at a time, making sure to alternate the placement and colors as desired. Use smaller sizes to fill in the gaps!



Check out the final result! The hook end of the hanger is covered with bubblegum pink satin ribbon and a bow. How simple and beautiful is that?
