Cedar Christmas Wreath

I brought home some cedar rounds from my trip to Tennessee knowing that a wreath of some capacity would be born.  After searching the internet I came up with, nothing.  So they sat.  First on the patio, then in the dining room. then in the craft room, then back to the dining room.  All in an attempt to keep them on my mind so I could try and figure out what to do.  Then it finally happened.  I decided that I was going to make the wreath.  I would just figure it out.  No end plan.  No idea how.  After SEVERAL hours and a couple movies, I was satisfied.  Here the finished product...


To make this wreath all you need is some cedar rounds, a wire wreath frame and a trip to the dollar store for two rolls of ribbon, a box of bells, an ornament for the center a drill, scissors, bendable wire and some food (this is going to take some time).  I drilled two holes in each round and secured them to the wire frame one at a time until I had two rows.  I then added ribbon to the center, then the bells and bow.  Finished with attaching an ornament in the center and viola!  A beautiful wreath and a huge mess was laying on my table!
