Upgrading a Wreath, horse girl style

 So I'm just doing some more tiny Christmas decorating over here and figured I'd share the process as I go.

I started with the walmart wreathe ornaments with the bird.

I had some partially customized mini whinnies I was probably never going to do anything with and some fun metallic acrylic paint.

It took me about 3 coats to get the horse fully coated, might take less if you prime.

Then I glued and clamped it on. This was super easy and not only do the make excellent barn decorations, they could work just as well on a real tree.

Tada!

Sign Boards

So I went to Walmart where they have all the Christmas décor out and they had an entire section devoted to small tree ornaments. I definitely wanted all of them but settled for buying these lovely wreaths which besides the bird are in scale.

There were some other cool ornaments that would have been in scale-ish but I only have so much stall to decorate. The star things would look great too but I wished they were horses instead.

So anyway, I saw these cute "signs" for the tree and thought, I could definitely make something like that.

All you need is glue/modge podge, some jumbo popsicle sticks, and a printer (the normal paper kind).

Glue the sign on the popsicle stick or modge podge it on, dealers choice.

Next cut out the sign with either an exacto knife or a miter box.

Then just paint the edges a similar color.

I did the garlands by bending some christmas tree pipe cleaner things I got a joanns years ago and still am not through, then just added a bow to the middle.
