A Wreath out of What?What?
Crafts
Halloween Wreath made with a fun ingredient! I used a pair of TIGHTS, stockings, hose whatever you want to call them! You say a wreath out of what?what? Yes!
I’ve had these for a couple of years. I never found the occasion to wear them. So I decided to use them on a Halloween wreath!
I cut the tights down the middle, wrapped them around the straw wreath and used straight pins to secure.
Purchased 2 hangings from Big Lots, separated them and attached with fishing line to the wreath.
I am going to give this to my daughter, I know my grandsons will love it!
The tights make the perfect accent for the boots!
She’s got those creepy eyes that seem to follow you.
Do you see what I mean??
She looks kinda good on my door.
But I guess, I’ll let the boys have her!
What do you use your tights for? My little pretties!!
Best Witches to you!

I LOVE it! So darn cute! I have some Halloween stockings just like that that I have not had enough nerve to wear out in public. You are SO creative to come up with that great idea.
Ok this is brilliant......I am too excited to show this to my dil so my grandson can have one too!
How cute is that?! I love the striped tights. I joined the Nester's challenge, too. I made a capiz wreath!

I'm not really a Halloween decor kind of girl, but this is such a cute idea! Well done!
I just posted a similar wreath made from my daughter's leggings -orange and black striped! Great minds think alike. Love the "best Witches" sentiment :)
This is absolutely fabulous! So creative and cute!
What a great way to repurpose something you already have. Love the colors; it's so bright and fun!
Now that is a clever wreath and great upcycle. Tights on your wreath and hanging on the front door at that! How fun!
I am so pleased that you linked to Potpourri Friday. Your participation certainly makes the party more successful . I appreciate you! I hope you will make this one of your regular stops each week!
She is so darn cute...your idea was GREAT!!!!
