I Made a Christmas Wreath Almost Entirely with 100-Yen Items ♪

I made a Christmas wreath by myself for the first time. I had made wreaths four times before at a local flower class, so I decided to try it on my own this year. Wreath classes using fresh evergreens usually cost around ¥6,000–¥7,000, so this time I set my budget at ¥2,000. 

Almost all the materials came from 100-yen shops (mainly Seria). Only the evergreens—himuro cedar and blue ice—were bought at a flower shop for ¥400 each.

Because the base ring was small and hard, I tied small bundles of greenery with wire instead of inserting branches. By using plenty of evergreens, the wreath looks larger than it actually is.

After making the base, I glued the ornaments on. Placing them in advance made the work much easier. Since the glue gun has no on/off switch, I had to work quickly—but it only took about 10 minutes.

I attached the ornaments the next morning and hung the wreath on my living room wall.
The last photo shows it in natural light on the balcony—it looks even better there. With leftover materials, the actual cost was probably under ¥2,000. 😊
