Rustic Wreath

 I made this wreath to take with me to GMT on Monday.  I'll post a link to the segment on facebook, but in the meantime, here's a visual step by step.
 I bought a few picks with rusty bell, and then I used my 'stone' Krylon to make these silver bells 'rusty'.  I've tried a bunch of other techniques, and this is, by far, the most effective.
 I bought some larger picks with evergreen stems, and cut them apart.  I literally just poke and bend them into the wreath.  You can dab a little hot glue on the stem, but they stay really well regardless.  Please notice my helpers foot in the above photograph.
 I also wanted a large candy cane, but all I could find were sparkly canes, so I took some fabric I had and hot glued it over that glitter.
For less than 15 dollars, I have another new wreath.
