It\u2019s always fun to bring on our hot glue and glitter skills and put together some great table decorations for this year\u2019s crop of holiday parties.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 color_11\">This year our primary holiday themes are all silver and white. For the perfect accent piece, we are creating holiday wreaths using all silver holiday bulbs of various sizes and textures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 color_11\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-18404\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myklroventine.com\/_dev\/eventheroes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/f8536f_5e363b610f9a4643a63e9c2d2fde68a5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"183\" height=\"244\" \/>Gather the following items:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">Styrofoam wreath \u2013 I prefer 11.8\u201d but you can use whatever size you prefer<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">Holiday ornaments of different sizes and textures\n<ul>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">2.625\u201d or 6.7 cm<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">1.50\u201d or 3.86 cm<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">1.12\u201d or 2.80cm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">Cool glue gun and lots of glue sticks<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">Wire (I just use the glue but it might help if you have some wire)<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">Wire cutters<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">Beaded garland<\/li>\n<li class=\"font_8 color_11\">Any other accent pieces (ribbon, snowflakes, etc.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"font_8 color_11\">Getting Started:<\/h2>\n<p class=\"font_8 color_11\">Now find a comfortable work space, pour yourself your favorite warm drink, and if you\u2019re feeling festive put on some holiday tunes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 color_11\">Once I have all of my items gathered, I start by gluing the larger ornaments first. Place these around the outside, gluing them next to each other. Be sure to hold the ornament in place for approximately five seconds until the glue holds on its own.
