Letter Wreath knockoff

Ballard Design knockoff.  Their "B" is for $36 on sale.  I made mine for $4.oo.  Any type of greenery could be used but because my last name is B I thought it would be easier to intertwine 2 wreaths together.  If you have a string of greenery that has wire in it you can cut that its just a matter of bending in the same place back and forth until it snaps.  That way you could manipulate it to be whatever letter you needed. If you believe that it would be hard to make a letter yourself don't forget that most craft stores have wooden letters for a $1-$3 and you could hot glue greenery to or pine cones or cover the wooden letter in Christmas scrapbook paper .  I usually place my wooden B with scrapbook paper in my tree as an ornament, its a great tree filler if you have a bare spot.


 

 
I leaned it up against the paper towel roll to give you an idea of the height of it.  To make this was less than $2.  Wrap it in Christmas wrapping paper if you don't have scrapbook paper.
