DIY Christmas Wreath

This year I've been going through all of our home decor and deciding between what we want to keep and not keep. A lot of what we have is from college and one thing in particular that I pulled out was a plastic wreath. It had seen better days and honestly, I was in a crafty mood so I decided to make our own wreath this year.

Now before you start thinking that I'm this closet-crafter, I must warn you - this wreath tutorial is very simple in effort and in presentation. But it also cost me less than $10 total!

I was inspired by this pin a few weeks ago-

Just follow these 3 (in reality, 2!) easy steps.
Could it be really any easier? Please keep in mind that I'm not a professional ribbon-tier, I even spent 15 minutes youtubinng different videos and I just don't have the talent to mold a piece of string into a pretty shape. But I bet some of you out there do!

So from there on you can customize your easy wreath with ornaments and jingle bells.

I picked up a pack of jingle bells from Grocery Outlet for $2 and being the absolute dork that I am, I felt that my wreath needed a little bit of pizazz that I bet you won't be finding on any other wreath out there.

Isn't it absolutely precious? The hubs thought I was pretty silly when I told him that I had a cloth diaper ornament, but when he saw it on the wreath, even he couldn't help but crack a little smile.
