Shiny Brite Wreath- Red, White and Blue!

 Hi Friends,

I decided to make another Shiny Brite Ornament

Wreath today in Red, White and Blue.

I collect them throughout the year at thrift shops and garage sales.

I was thinking it would be nice to have for

Memorial Day as well as Independence Day.

I have some of my ornaments separated by color.

I was pretty sure I had enough.

I started with a wreath form, and covered it with

Tinsel Garland-

You can find it year round but I stock up after the holidays.

Ready for ornaments!

You will need a hot glue gun and lots of glue.

I set aside some other special ornaments to use.

Plug in your Glue Gun!

I started with large ornaments first

then smaller.

You can add small tuffs of garland in gaps.

Use a generous amount of glue, but not so much that it shows.

Remember: The tinsel is holding the ornament in place!

I like to rotate the wreath for balance,

Then I pick where I want the top.

Then just keep going....you will need a couple hours to complete.

Eventually you will decide when you are done!

I added a ribbon to the wreath form for hanging.

Store flat -under the bed is a good place :)

Note: Do not store your wreath in a hot place like a garage or attic.

The heat may effect the glue and ornaments could fall off and break.

Happy Memorial Day!
