Wreaths

Grapevine Wreath
Gather wild grapevines from the woods. Soak them overnight in water to soften them up, and then they can be used to shape wreaths (or a manger for a nativity scene). Decorate them with different colored ribbons, plus dried flowers and moss from the woods.

Multi-Colored Wreath
Cut circles out of used file folders. Cut circles out of the middle of each circle. Let the kids tear small pieces off of those colorful pieces of tissue paper that you received in gift bags and could never throw out. Put a little white glue into one of those plastic lids that doesn’t go with anything in your plastic storage stuff drawer anymore. Let the kids wad up the pieces of tissue paper, dip one end in the glue press onto the circle. The more, the merrier!! Poke a hole in the top, run a scrap of bright colored yarn through it.

Wreath
Buy plain wreaths from a craft store, shells to glue to them, add a bow to the bottom and you have a nice hanging ornament.
