Carnation Wreath



This wreath from Better Homes and Garden is made with a styrofoam wreath form, artificial red carnations, and sparkling beads.

You snip the stems off of the carnations (about an inch from the base of the flower). Put a spot of hot glue on the bottom of the stem and stick it into the styrofoam base. (repeat until the entire base is covered). Add some sparkly green beads or miniature ball ornaments and hang it with ribbon.
