This simple swag wreath took just minutes to make. All you need are a few bittersweet vines and berries and some twine. That's it! So simple, so sweet - bursting with autumn color! Bittersweet vines and berries are a warm welcome for any front door this fall.
Added note: Bittersweet stains very easily, so be careful when using them. I also learned that Bittersweet is very invasive and should be discarded in a sealed plastic bag. Here is a great article on Bittersweet, about it's beauty and invasive nature - http://www.yankeemagazine.com/home/garden/bittersweet-vine
