And for basically $0.
Okay, definitely less than $2.
I started getting warm and fuzzy Christmas feelings, oh, a month ago. This was bad since I have a strict no carols/decorating until after Thanksgiving policy. It is now after Thanksgiving. But unlike my friend Lara and her amazing trove of Christmas treasures, I have no decorations. This is my first Christmas away from home where a) I am not in college or b) my roommates are not (undergrads) in college.
Nonetheless, I am inspired to start decorating. And today I made a wreath practically for free. How? First I started with a set of silver cupcake liners. These come with a silver liner and a white liner inside. At first, I thought, "how ridiculous!" Then I thought, "wonder if that's metal's toxic? yay for white liners!" So to make this wreath, in three easy steps.
Step one: gather your silver liners (before or after use; I went with after.) The number you use changes the size of your wreath, I used 13.
Step two: take one liner and flatten it.
Step three: Assemble in a circle and tape on the back. I just used Scotch tape. Use liberally, it won't be showing.
Okay, I guess there sort of is a step four.
Step four: Hang your wreath!
