After Christmas SALE = Ornament Wreath

Yesterday, I was running errands and noticed that a few stores still had a large amount of Christmas items on clearance. I gave in at the last store and happily put 9 boxes (each box had 10 or 20 ornaments) of ornaments in my shopping cart. This morning I began opening the boxes to begin my project...

Just after Christmas I saw the amazing Christmas Ornament Wreath on the Just A Girl Blog and I planned to make it as soon as the stores began displaying and selling Christmas "stuff" in 2010. That all changed last night when I found these leftover ornaments. Did I mention that I got all 9 boxes for just over $10?!?!? Anyway, after I opened the boxes I began putting the ornaments on the wire hanger.
Before I knew it the hanger was full and my wreath was almost complete. The only part I had a bit of a difficult time with was hooking the two sides of the hangers together to form the circle. I think I cheated a bit because I used some thin craft twine to make sure the two sides of the hanger cannot come apart.

Here it is...my 1st ornament wreath is complete.
The wreath project was fast and easy. I only broke one glass ornament in the process and I had just enough ornaments leftover to make a second wreath. Now I have two matching Christmas Wreaths and I just might go back to the store tonight or tomorrow to buy more ornaments in different colors.
I would love to have one wreath on every interior door of my house next year. Just think of the possibilities...coordinating ornament colors for each room. Ought-O I think I liked this simple and easy project so much that I may go overboard making these wreaths...I guess you will just have to wait and see what I post next.
