I started with s e simple silver garland from the Dollar Tree, and that was all the money I spent n this wreath. Everything else I used came from things I already had – gotta love it!
I wound the garland around the twig wreath loosely and tied it off at the top.
I then dove into my ornament stash and found white snowflakes and silver and white glitter icicles. I added the snowflakes between the garland and hung the icicles from the bottom of the wreath.
I added a couple more icicles to the inside of the wreath and added some silver clip-on flowers to the top.
After some trial and error on placement – and more than one instance of dropping the wreath and starting over! – it was ready for the front door!
I decided the keep the plastic Dollar Tree snowflake that was adorning our door until I got around to making the wreath. You can’t have too many snowflakes as far as I’m concerned, but don’t quote me on that in April!
I don’t know about you, but that says “Christmas” and “winter” to me! Definitely reflective of this Minnesota girl’s love for snow!
Are you a traditional red and green person? Are whites, silvers, and icy blues more your thing? Or what says “winter” and “Christmas” to you?
That is beautiful! I tend to be on the red and green end of the spectrum but I love this!
Very pretty (and looks like it was easy too!)
So pretty and nontraditional – looks beautiful!! and fun to to 🙂
I love the wreat!!! I’m with you, hardly any red & green at my house…….my entire living room is filled with white and silver. I do have some red/green things with the downstairs decorations.
That is so pretty!
THis is such a lovely wreath! And I love that you can still display it after Christmas is over. 🙂
What a gorgeous wreath, pinned for later.
Happy Sharefest
It’s gorgeous!
I love this and being able to reuse items makes it even better. White and red…nooo….green and red…noooo….multi colors..nooo, Oh I love all the colors of Christmas. ^_^
Come visit me when you have a minute or two. I made a wreath for my door too out of items I already had. It was fun and could be done for more than just Christmas time. Come visit!! So happy I did you.
Happy SITS Saturday!!!
Stunning great for kids and moms to make together, will share. TY.
It turned out really cute! I love the silver mixed with the wood.
I love the wreath! I like to decorate with blues and silver more than the traditional red and green so this would look great with my other decorations. Thanks so much for sharing on our Wonderful Wednesday Link Party!
I love the silver on the wreath. It looks so pretty.

Your wreath is lovely!! I really like the white/silver color scheme!
Kristin – I love your wreath! I am going to have to make something like this. I need a new wreath and I like how this has a winter theme and you could use it past Christmas if you want to.
