Christmas Decor

This year I decided I wanted to make a new Christmas project. I had seen a wreath made from sheet music and just fell in love with it. I don't remember where I saw the idea first, but if you just search the internet for Christmas Sheet Music Wreath you will find loads of ideas and beautiful images. So here is my version.

I found the sheet music at a local antique shop near me. I proceeded to roll each piece into a coil shape and then dipped the edges into glue and then gold glitter. Then I hot glued the ends around a circular floral wire that I bought a Hobby Lobby. Once I had the wreath done, I hot glued some old gold Christmas ball ornaments in the middle. It was a little time consuming, but not too bad. I still have it hanging up above my fireplace. I don't know where I will end up storing this, because it turned out to be about 3 feet in diameter. So here she is, thanks for looking. And have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
