Quick Ice Skate Wreath Project

Ice Skate Wreath- From My Front Porch To Yours
Sarah from Alderberry Hill shared this beautiful wreath that she made with us for a recent Treasure Hunt Thursday. I was in love with it and it just so happened that I owned a pair of ice skates. I have had them for two years now and just did not know how to display them. Then I saw Sarah's wreath and instant inspiration!

This is my scaled down version.

All I did was attach the ice skate with some brown twine to where you could not see it. I just looped it thru one of the shoe lace holes. Then I added one pick and the only pick I could find at HobLob. After that I took the red bow which came from a bundle of fresh greenery and just bent the wire to slide on to the top of the wreath. Presto! A simple fabulous wreath in under 10 minutes that cost literally less than $2.50!! Now that is my kind of decorating!
