easy way to combine the tedium of house cleaning with the joy of
holiday decorating.

some excess bins from all junk drawers in house and garage and
basements (if you have one)

couches and other soft furniture and root out all objects including
coinage.
Add all drawer and
couch objects to floor pile.
Use large piece of
cardboard (a used pizza box is perfect)
Cut cardboard into

objects.
Start gluing objects
from pile onto cardboard.
Don’t forget to
strive for balance in form and content of wreath! Have fun.
