Vintage Christmas Ornament Wreaths That You Can Make


Christmas ornament wreaths are the perfect way to use those old, chipped ornaments and turn them into something new and beautiful!



Here's how to do it:


~ First, attach a wire to your wreath base.  This will serve as the wreath's hanger.

~ You can use any type of wreath base. Straw works well. (The first wreath shown in the photos below was built upon an existing old wreath)


~ Next, use a low temp glue gun or E600 adhesive (better for glass ornaments) to attach ornaments to the wreath base. 

~ Attach the largest ornaments first, then use the smallest ornaments to fill in the gaps. 

That's it! Check out the collection of wreaths below for inspiration!
