How To Make a Small Sparkly Wreath for Christmas
TIP - It is helpful to have some sort of container to place your glitter in so that it doesn't get all over when you're applying it to the wreath! We use a plastic lid with deep sides.
White glue or spray adhesive both work well, depending on the look you want. The glue creates a heavier layer of glitter, while the spray adhesive creates a lighter glitter application.
Step 1 - Place a generous amount of glitter onto your work area.
Step 2 - Apply the adhesive to one side of the wreath.
Step 3 - Once the adhesive is in place, press the wreath into the glitter and moved it around to cover one side completely.
If any part was missed, dust your small Christmas wreath with a pinch of glitter.
Once dried, apply an embellishment. This is optional but adds a lot of character.
Since we like the look of berries, we purchased a sprig of sparkly holiday decor and cut a few leaves and berries off. Then hot glued them to the wreath.
If you prefer, a miniature bow would also look nice to finish it off.

Erin, I love twig wreaths, they are rustic and so pretty. The berries are a favorite of mine too, and there are so many options out there. You can stick with the traditional red or choose a metallic or crystal option. So many ways to tie this into your existing decor. The slight sparkle from the glitter would catch the Christmas lights, I love that little extra spark and shine.
