Make This Fall Woodland Wreath for Under $5
$5

Easy
Projects using elements from nature are some of my favorites because they're usually free and readily accessible. For my project, I took a trip down to the wooded river valley near our house and gathered up most of the materials I would need.
Use an embroidery hoop as the base. To allow the branches to bend around your embroidery hoop, make sure they are freshly cut. I stored mine in our garage for a week or so and they worked fine.
Simply use florist wire to attach branches to the hoop. Create multiple layers until it looks full.
For the pine cones, gather what you can. I ended up buying a large bag of western white pine cones from a local greenhouse for $2 (and only used half the bag). I found it best to attach the large pine cones with the wire first, hang the wreath up and then add the smaller ones after playing around a bit.
