I was feeling crafty yesterday so I made a Christmas wreath. I took a wreath that I already had and wrapped it with white lights that I had on hand. I purchased two sets of poinsettias and some berries from the Dollar Tree. I used my hot glue gun to glue the berries and poinsettias to the wreath. I took a snowman ornament that I already had and hot glued him to the wreath also. Here is the finished $3 wreath.
WHAT DO YOU THINK??
Now, to follow up with the homemade laundry detergent post from a few days earlier. I had to add more hot water to my detergent because it was REALLY thick! I put my detergent in milk jugs that I rinse out when we are done with them. I had a total of 7 1/2 jugs of homemade detergent!
WOW! This should last me a few months!! And since I only used 1 cup of washing soda and borax I have alot left. So, next time I need to make homemade laundry detergent all I have to buy is the soap which costs 97 cents! The initial cost was $7.25 and I figured I may need 3 more batches of laundry detergent in a year. So, an ENTIRE years total for laundry soap will cost me $10.25!! The best thing is it cleans MUCH better than any expensive detergent I purchased from the store!
