This wreath cost me a total of 3.47!
(The cost of one can of Emerald Green spraypaint).
The wreath itself was given to me for...wait for it, wait for it, free. I don't turn anything down that is free. ever. My sweet friend was moving and didn't want to take it with her so I snatched it. It once had vibrant green leaves with red berries adorning it, but that day had long passed.
It waited patiently hanging on my wall for about 3 years for it's makeover. Poor little dusty wreath.
With Christmas right around the corner I thought I'd go for a Christmasy look. I just spray painted it Emerald Green. That turned out pretty bright so I grabbed a can of ORB off my shelf and lightly sprayed over the top to tone it down. Then I added some Christmas picks that I already had and stuck them in. Easy Peesy.
I love Christmas and I love cheap! I am so inspired by all you bloggers out there who are so very talented at making things beautiful on a budget! I just try to keep up with ya'll!
What a deal! It looks great!
