PB Knock Off Christmas Ornament Wreath

I was flipping through the new Pottery Barn Christmas catalogue when I came across this wreath:

It's $79. Yikes.

So I decided to take matters into my own hands. I ended up with this for less than $20! Believe it or not, it only took about half an hour to assemble.

I started with a plain wreath from Target. It was on sale for $12 and some change.

Then I gathered my ornaments. I chose different shades and sizes of green. Some from Target dollar section, some from Hobby Lobby 50% off.

I attached them to the wreath using ornament hooks. (Those were free from our stash of Christmas decorations in the attic. I think they originally cost 99 cents for the entire pack.) Just wrap each hook around a branch a few times to make sure it won't fall off. (That's right, you don't even need a glue gun to make this beauty. Booya.)

The finished product again:

Once I hung it on the door I fluffed some of the branches and moved some of them around until I liked the way everything was laying. When I tried to close the storm door I found that my wreath was too big to fit between my two doors. I guess this one will be hanging inside and it's back to the drawing board as to what will adorn the front door. I think I'm up for the task. I love a good wreath challenge!
