Making a salvaged Christmas wreath

The wreath used to support the Christmas decoration can be of different kinds:
- from tightly-wound straw, wrapped in elastic string, as found in hobby stores, - from flexible insulation tubing: simply cut to length, store the two ends together to form a circle - from salt dough (but it will only be possible to roll elements onto the wreath, not to hold them in place by sticking needles), because of the thickness of the cylinder, the salt dough wreath will need to be baked for a long time - from newspaper: sheets of recycled newspaper are shaped into a wreath and held together with craft paper tape: it's easy to do yourself and very economical! But the wreath must then be completely covered to hide the tape.

To decorate the wreath, first a garland of green ivy is rolled up, then a garland of fir leaves and finally 2 classic reflective garlands (or pieces of garland too short to be used for the tree).
Other decorations, picked up here and there, add volume and personality to this example wreath: fabric elves (or other Christmas tree hangers such as our felt hangers or beaded hangers), a bell hanger, a large raffia bow and pine cones quickly spray-painted gold.
