DIY Christmas Wreath

With the same greens that I used for my gift wrapping, I made a couple of Christmas wreaths. Because I didn't have any thick wire at home, I used an old electricity wire. Luckily it was brown so it came out looking pretty natural! With thin wire I attached the twigs to the circles. I used different kinds of Christmas greens that I got at the gardening centre, the smell really gets you in a Christmas mood!

I hope you're ready for a cosy and relaxing Christmas! I still have to do some cleaning because our home doesn't quite look like these pictures at the moment ;)

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Wrapping with Greens

Just before Christmas has started you might be in need for some last minute wrapping inspiration... If you have some neutral looking wrapping paper lying around you can easily give your gifts a festive touch by using some greens like eucalyptus or pine springs. As you can see I also made a mini Christmas wreath with some wire and conifers leaves. I made these pictures for the vtwonen blog where I write a piece about greens every week. You can find them here! More Christmas inspiration on the blog tomorrow!
