New Favorite Christmas Decorating Idea!

I cannot take all of the credit for this. I watched a show, one late night on HGTV on Decorating. One of the things they had done was this one. Since I am a Picture NUT, I fell in love with the idea! I am going to pass it along in case you haven't seen it.

Here it is:

Supplies Needed:
Large Artifical wreath
wired wide ribbon 2.5-3" wide
thin red ribbon 1" wide
holiday picks (.99 and 30% off)
4x6 inexpensive picture frames ($1.99 each)

I found a LARGE artifical wreath on sale at Old Time Pottery (others at Hobby Lobby were 8 times the cost). I made a bow out of ribbon and wrapped it on my wreath. I planned it out and I was able to get 7 frames on my wreath. I found 7 pictures from 1993-2005 of our family at Christmas. I spray painted the frames (took out the glass and backing) gold. I cut 7 pieces of thin (1" wide) and folded it and glued it with hot glue and then glued it to the back of the frame (as a loop). I arranged the pictures, oldest to newest and put the picks in. That is it. Here is the finished product! Enjoy! It looks great!
