If you remember I used a vintage wood frame with ornaments last year..
If you'd like to see that post go Here.

Which was just a simple, no cost, and unique project.
However, I am using that frame elsewhere in the house and I decided I would like
to be able to light it up this year so I decided to go a little more traditional.

So I purchased a plain green wreath, a set of battery powered lights with a timer, and got
out my Christmas theme florals/ribbons and decided to see what I came up with.

First I fluffed the wreath up some, and made sure my lights worked. :0)
Then I strung the lights and attached the battery box to the back of the wreath.

So far, so good.
Then I just started tucking things in.. some glittery picks, poinsettia's, and some
sticks to add a little rustic charm.. :0) then I added a simple burlap bow.

Very pretty! I am a bit envious of everyone already decorating! Hopefully I can get something done next week while I'm off work. Have a lovely Friday and weekend!
