The new life of an old Xmas wreath





I made this Xmas wreath more than 15 years ago for my mom. She liked it so much that every year she dusted it, bought new candles and used it at Christmas. Now they're moving to a new house and we found this wreath, that was for sure ruined by the time. So for their new house, I've decided to renew the wreath for her.




I've removed all the faded and broken old dried flowers, candles, etc., but decided to keep the base and the pine cones at the rim.


My mother grew up in a forester's house, so she loves natural decorations, so I wanted to create something that reflects the atmosphere of the woods.
So I applied moth, pine cones, red berries, cinnamon, and red candles by hot glue. And this is the new look of the old wreath. Hope she will like it.
