    The ornament balls are plastic and come with a long wire, so you can slip it through and twist around the wreath. I did the same with the greenery. I also put more of the ornaments today so it is even fuller lol.

    Default Second Project, Wreath in Vase

    I had this old plastic Vase? Grecian style. This comes with a tube to hold a wreath, cemented into the center. I sprayed the vase with gold spray and then with the crackle to give it the aged crackled look. This is a kit of basecoat and crackle (two cans)

    I had a little terra cotta bunny so I let him join the foray.
    I then wound some greenery around the wreath and did the same decoration I did on the larger wreath. I don't know where I will put the vase yet.

    The bunny, I will paint some stuff on later...I have a skinny tree to do for the kitchen, maybe tomorrow.
