New Year Wreath
By Pink Mela on Feb 22, 2011 with Comments 25
Who wants to decorate for New Year's just after we've knocked ourselves out for Christmas? Surely, this holiday deserves something. Here is an easy decoration that can be popped onto the front door wreath to help transform Christmas into New Year's.
Materials
card stock
paper plate
tinsel garland
silver crepe paper
white glue
thin ribbon or cord
tools
scissors
Download the clock face here. Print on card stock. Glue to the back of a paper plate. Cut strips of crepe paper large enough to cover the area between the clock face and the plate and perhaps a bit more. Gather and glue around the clock face overlapping the edge by about 1/8". Cover the overlap with tinsel garland. Punch a hole in the top of the plate, just above the 12 and thread ribbon or cord through the hole. Tie the ends together. Hang.

Auld Lang Syne!

Super excellent idea. I love how yours turned out. So perfect and festive for the 'time of year'.
My Show n Tell Link—where it's kinda fodder for the National Enquirer Tabloids. Do stop by if you can, I'd love your opinion.
Happy New Year
