Horn of Plenty Wreath


I started with a standard "horn of plenty" which I found at a local thrift shop and decided to repaint.  I used a Rustoleum spray paint for wood surfaces and spray painted them thoroughly.  Also, I made sure I used a quick-drying spray paint.





And here's a picture of the painted horns.  The supplies I used for decorations are laid out in front.
I used the styrofoam cone to pack in the center of the horn and hold items in place.




Next, I picked out some more floral items to go in the horn.  You can see the pumpkin, an ear of corn and some fall leaves.  I also added a fall colored bow to the horn because I wanted to use it as a wreath for the front door.

I used a command hook (which you can see at the top behind the flowers) and a pipe cleaner to hang it on the front door.
