This wreath is so cheap and easy to make! I used were old canning jar lids (purchased at a thrift store for 5 cents each), strung them onto a cord and knotted the two ends of the cord together to make a circle.

DIY: Canning Lid Wreath
As you may have noticed, I love recycling canning jars. I use then as drinking glasses,
coasters, storage, and now for a small Holiday wreath that I have hanging on the front door.

That looks really good! Trouble is, we don't have such thrift stores - or the lids - available here in the UK. Could have done it when we lived in Canada in the 1980's: but they don't have canning jars like those you have the other side of the pond.
ReplyDeleteHope the wreath brings you luck for 2012 and joy and pleasure over Christmas!
could be a fun way to store your canning rings too!
ReplyDeleteI have a TON of those, I still can vegetables and jelly, but you only need as many rings as fit in the canner... Have you tried spray painting it a festive color?
