This year I used a Martha Stewart wreath kit and made a poinsettia paper wreath. It wasn't hard, but it certainly was tedious. I had to cut out individually all the petals and leaves not to mention the wrapping of the very, tiny, tiny cotton balls that became the center of the flowers. I worked on this over a course of 3 evenings while watching TV (and having a husband out to sea).
These wreath kits were originally priced at $20 last year in the craft stores. I love poinsettia's so I was keeping my eye on them but wasn't going to pay $20 for one. I came across one on sale for $5 in the fall of this year and another one for $3.99 at the beginning of December. Figured why not for that price right? I would not have spent $20 on this craft. It's not worth that.
