DIY: Simple Ornament Twig Wreath


I wanted to make a wreath this year but I've definitely been pressed for time. If you're in the same boat, this is the wreath for you! It took me about 20 minutes. 

What you'll need:
  • grapevine wreath (I bought mine at Joann's for about $4)
  • ornaments in a variety of sizes (I found these at Target)
  • hot glue
  • a ribbon
I didn't even bother to take step-by-step photos because it's so simple. I basically just covered the tops of the ornaments with hot glue (A LOT of hot glue) and placed them where I thought they looked best. I glued the large ornaments first and then filled in the holes with the small ones. Attach a ribbon and you're all set!

    1. You can just wrap a ribbon around a few of the twigs on the top backside.
