Christmas Wreath

Last night I made this Christmas wreath:


I simply took a wreath and hot-glued ornaments all over it. I'm pleased with how it turned out and it was quick and cheap to make. Plus, Eric even said, "That looks really good." He isn't one to dish out unasked for compliments on my crafty endeavors, so I was happy.

Price breakdown:
Wreath: $1 (regular price $10, 90% off after Christmas sale at JoAnn's last year)
Ornaments: $4 (4 packs of ornaments from the Target dollar spot)
TOTAL: $5--You can't beat that.

Now, a question for you, dear friends. Should I add ribbon? I could add a big bow at the top. Or I could wrap the ribbon around the wreath and have a bow at the top. If I do add ribbon, I think I would use a red, wide, wired ribbon. What do you think?????

I like it just as it is. But if you wanted to add a bow on top (that is what I would do) it would still look really good!

big red bow at the top with the ends hanging down twisted a bit! It really did turn out great!

It looks great, but I think I agree with others that a bow would add a nice touch. :)

Definitely add ribbon! You know I love ribbon ;). I'd have it at the top with the ends hanging down, like Kelly said. You're so crafty!

I like the big wide ribbon wrapped around it idea. Look forward to the end result.
