1. Pool Noodle Wreath
Before you bin old decorations, think about reusing them as the main ingredient in a gorgeous Christmas wreath.
To make: Pick up a $3 pool noodle from Kmart, tape or glue the ends together into a circle and glue on decorations. Choose between baubles, ribbons, flowers, tinsel, garlands or go all out with them all! Attach your wreath to your door using removable self-adhesive picture-hanging strips. Glorious!
2. Mickey Mouse Wreath
With so many Disney fans out there it’s no surprise people are making Mickey Mouse wreaths this Christmas and one woman shared her gorgeous creation to Facebook.

3. Update an old one
If you have an old wreath that needs a little sprucing up, get out your hot glue gun and give it a stunning spring makeover. Push pretty little flowers into the wreath to greet your guests every time they knock on your door. Hello, sweetie!
4. Recycled Wreath
Before you get rid of those natural-coloured egg cartons, think about reusing them to make a gorgeous Christmas wreath.
To make: use the flat lid part of the cartons to cut out a series of flat, feathered leaf shapes. Cut the cup parts of the egg cartons into three-dimensional flower shapes with three, four, five or more petals. Cut a wreath shape from rigid cardboard or foamcore board. Use hot glue to attach the base layer of flat leaves to the wreath shape, and then build up the scene with the three-dimensional flower shapes.
5. Personalised Wreath
One woman shared to Facebook her striking DIY wreath with a light-up personalised letter. "Couldn't find a wreath I liked this year. Cut and wrap a burlap table runner around a wire hoop," she wrote.
Attach the decorations with hot glue gun and voila you have a wreath that oozes homey charm. A very merry Christmas to you!
