When you have a house full of collectibles, it's only natural to want to use them in decorating for the holidays. This year I decided to make a set of "candy" Halloween wreaths for the front doors. The inspiration was the glass candy taffy ornaments from Susan Cherry Designs and a beaded garland that reminded me of candy pieces.
Supplies Used and Needed for Halloween Wreath:
- grapevine wreath
- glass candy ornaments
- Pez dispensers
- assorted lollipops
- plastic candy/cake picks and skeletons
- reproduction tin pumpkin man
- spray paint
- glue gun
- florist wire
- garlands
First step is to paint the grapevine wreath with glossy black spray paint. Spray both sides of the wreath with several coats of paint. It took a full large can of spray paint to cover two 20" wreaths.
To be safe, always use spray paint outside! After the wreath is completely dry, use a length of florist wire to make a hanger on the back of the wreath.
