Christmas Card Wreath

Every Christmas I see Christmas card holders like this...

potterybarn.com
...but don't want to spend the $50 for one.

So when I saw this project on pinterest...

...I knew I wanted to make one for our Christmas cards.  

All you need is a wire hanger, clothespins, green spray paint, red pony beads, and some ribbon for a bow.  

First clip the clothespins on the side of a box and spray paint them.  I flipped mine around and sprayed the clip part, too.  


Then undo a wire hanger and start stringing on the green clothespins and beads.  

(I ended up taking the white beads off.)
When you are finished, add a bow to the top.


So excited to be proudly displaying our Christmas cards this year!
