The Dollar store can be a hidden gem at times- and today's project a Christmas Bell Wreath was created from things only from the Dollar Store.
You can make one easily too and for only $7!
Note: I did not end up using the ribbon shown
Supplies:
5 boxes of bells (9 bells in each box)
1 green wreath
1 Red bow
Scissors
String the cords that come with the bells through each bell. Then simply tie each bell onto the wreath. Make sure the knots are tight.
You can tie the bells to the front and on the front sides of the wreath- leave a few extra to go back and fill in any holes at the end.
Place your bow at the top of the wreath to see where the bow covers the wreath as you DO NOT need to place any bells there.
Secure the bow to the wreath with the twisty tie that came with the bow.
Hang the wreath (I just put on a door knob) to see if there are any spots you want to go back and add any more bells.
Take scissors and trim any of the gold strings showing.
Then you are done!
Easy, fast and low cost for a great bell wreath.

This is so pretty! I love the way it turned out! I will have to look for bells at my dollar store.
ReplyDeleteLove this....I love making my own wreaths (so much cheaper than buying them) and this one is not only affordable but super cute as well. Thanks for sharing on my blog Emmy!!
ReplyDeleteEmmy, that looks awesome!! You are very crafty...and I'm very jealous :)
ReplyDeleteI have yet to make my own wreath, but I have aspirations to. I love that it's affordable to make and easy enough for me! Great tutorial!
ReplyDeleteSo cute and super easy! I love it!
ReplyDeleteWas this found on Pinterest? I haven't been on lately? NO matter where or how you came up with it, it is beautiful and if you bought it at Micheal's it would cost $30 bucks or more! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThat's so super easy - great tutorial!
ReplyDeleteNo this wasn't on Pintrest- Charlene asked if I would do a dollar store craft- do I went to the dollar store with no idea what I was going to do. I started seeing different supplies and the balls started rolling- so to speak.
ReplyDeleteLove it. I'm about ready for a new one.
