A NATURAL CHRISTMAS WREATH {STEP BY STEP}

This year I've decided to have a natural Christmas. No plastic, only natural and recyclable materials. And let me tell you, it's been so much fun so far! I've never made a wreath before, but it turned out such a success! I can't wait to tell you how to make a Christmas wreath step by step. It's unexpectedly easy to make, gorgeous, and absolutely for free!

A NATURAL CHRISTMAS WREATH {STEP BY STEP}

STEP 1.

First, you need to gather your materials. Take a walk in the park, in the woods, or in your backyard. For this Christmas Pinterest-worthy wreath, you'll need to find a bunch of flexible twigs, some greenery - (fur branches, eucalyptus, holly berries), pinecones. Whatever you have on hand and nearby.

 

STEP 2.

You need to make sure that your twigs are flexible enough to bend a little. I was in luck - my neighbors just trimmed the tree yesterday and we had access to tons of freshly cut twigs. When you start assembling your natural Christmas wreath, put a bunch of twigs together and tightly wrap the floral wire around.

STEP 3.

Continue banding over your twigs, simultaneously adding more as you go and connecting them with floral wire.

 

STEP 4.

When you get to the full circle you can either adjust the size and make it a bit bigger or if you are satisfied with the size of your wreath, connect the twigs and finish a circle. You can also add more to the side to make it look fuller.

 

STEP 5.

Here comes the fun part - decorating your natural Christmas wreath. The possibilities are endless. You can use greenery, pine cones, yarn balls, ornaments, burlap. Literally, whatever you want and have nearby. I had fur branches, holly berry branches, and pine cones. And that was more than enough.

 

STEP 6.

Attach branches with floral wire. Try to hide the wire under the greenery, and have fun creating! Try to distribute pine cones evenly and glue it in the end.

 

STEP 7.

Put the hook on your door and enjoy it!

Painting my heart away 😅 since we moved to this Painting my heart away 😅 since we moved to this house a year ago, it's been a journey, and tons of paint involved.

I wish I could say I love painting walls. I don't. I love a fabulous transformations though. So the pain is validated. 

Considering I'm a single mom of two kids and  a dog (that is heavier than my both kids combined and quite a handful), I'd say I'll need another 2 years to paint all the rooms as I planned. 

What's your estimate?

If anyone needs a reminder - you are still here af If anyone needs a reminder - you are still here after all the sh*t you had to go through, and it's worth celebrating! I'm proud of you! 

So often we look at people through social media, admiring them, admiring their life, without realizing what is actually going on behind the scenes. 

Last few years has been an emotional rollercoaster for me. After being in an abusive relationship for years, being constantly gaslighted  that made me question my sanity, I thought I was going crazy. I've found the truth. Truth can set you free. I wasn't the crazy one after all. I just didn't trust my gut and chose to ignore it while it was screaming at me that I'm being played. 

It taught me a lesson. I didn't know I was going to go through something like this, and oh my, I had very low scary points during all that. But now I have awareness. And the biggest lesson I've learnt is to trust my gut.

You are strong! You can get through whatever life (or some assholes throw at you) 😘 in case you didn't hear it from anyone today 😊

It's definitely has been a journey. Journey of sel It's definitely has been a journey. Journey of self discovery, healing childhood trauma, learning how to let go. 

The hardest part was to live in a fantasy world. Where I felt for years that something was off but my every concern was met with me being called crazy. 

I wasn't crazy after all. And truth can set you free. 
I'm in a happy place now. 

Finally. 

I remember who I am.
