October 30, 2009, Newsletter Issue #133: Dried Wreaths

Tip of the Week

Dried wreaths are another option for decorating your home at Christmas time. You don't always have to purchase a plain evergreen wreath because it seems very Christmas-like; you can also display fabric wreaths and of course, dried flower wreaths, made just for Christmas.

A holiday wreath can be made with dried juniper and cedar leaves that have been preserved and for an added touch, dried caspia and red roses along with fake berries make up a beautiful dried wreath for Christmas. A wreath such as this will cost close to $70.

You could also choose a preserved cedar leaf wreath with seashells, sea grass and dried caspia throughout it. The touch of red adds a wonderful holiday feel to the wreath. A wreath similar to this will cost about $60.

Dried wreaths for Christmas are usually about 16 inches around, but can be smaller or larger. You can also have dried Christmas wreaths custom made just for you, at a higher price. If you wish, you can also make your own dried Christmas wreath. Check at a local craft store, which sell wreaths such as these, for instructions on how to make one.
