I know we are all about Christmas decorated out by now but it's never to late to think about next year especially as the stores being to increase the mark downs on their Christmas decorations. We know Christmas will be coming again next year and as smart thrifty people we don't want to pay full price unless absolutely necessary! LOL!
One of the things that could use an "updo" is our wreaths. A quick way to do that is to tie a Christmas sign or hang another type of decoration on it. You can see what I'm talking about in the pictures. The green berry wreath is one of the oldest ones I have but I can't seem to let it go so this year I added a pair of tartan ice skates to it. The wreath with the reindeer is actually a sign you would hang on the door by itself but I thought it would be too plain so I tied it to this "cheap" plain wreath. Add a ribbon and ta da you have an "updo." The lighted wreath on our front door has a big metal red and white polka dot "M" on it. Again all you have to do is tie your "updo" on with some green florist wire and add a pretty ribbon.
So when the Christmas discounts begin to rise don't forget to look about some things you could tie on your wreaths next year. Who knows your wreath may look better than it ever has. Just a thought. There are so many cute tree decorations that you could tie them all around your wreaths too.
I hope ya'll are ready for tomorrow! With all the preparations done now hopefully we can relax and enjoy ourselves. Merry Christmas to each of you!!
