How to Make an Easy Holiday Swag Wreath

It seems that this year I’ve been creating all sorts of thrifty DIY holiday decor. From a simple DIY snow globe from a mason jar to a DIY ornament from a Dollar tree gum ball machine, I’ve been on a thrifty DIY holiday roll! This project is no different because I’m using left over tree clippings to make an easy holiday swag wreath (or table centerpiece).

  2. Start by inserting the Christmas tree clippings or garland into each end of the floral foam.
  3. Once you have an even amount of garland on each side, start to wrap the ribbon around the floral foam.
