For natural wreaths, I enjoy taking the dog for a walk and finding what I can out in nature while we get some exercise. I look for pine cones, bitter sweet, shells just anything I might be able to use in my wreaths. I usually put what I find in a Ziploc bag and place in freezer for a few days to kill off any critters.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Love that!!

[@deboraholson2992]

My hint is to keep a notebook with info on the percent off you got when you buy clearance items. When you're pricing out an item later, it will help you remember what you actually paid

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Great tip! Thanks for sharing!

[@darleneghoreyshi6723]

I write the price on the tag including tax.

[@gailtilton6528]

Does this mean when your pricing your wreath you charge the regular price and nt the sale price

[@deboraholson2992]

@@gailtilton6528 no, I price using the sale price as reference and pricing on comparable items on Etsy, etc

Thank you for all your videos. My favorite tip from you was staying organized. I save money by collecting natural things from outside. I have a chestnut tree near me lots of pinecone trees, my friends, even save pinecones for me when they go on trips. acorns are great and just anything else I find. After the ready, I tend to spray paint them gold, and make them into Christmas wreaths with red berries and Holly. I cut a lot of the pinecones into dahlia flowers. I pruning the top about halfway down the pinecone.

Glad that was helpful! And I love that you collect natural things from outside! That’s great!

Whenever I look,shop or want new Holiday decor I think do I have room to store it-i have limited space-not the case for everyone-i was surprised at my local Burlington store the prices seemed like they doubled for decor-I bought cute candle wreaths they are so pretty and seasonal at World Market on sale and used them for candles and on the back of my chairs,or in small windows with believer ribbon and saves on storage,I also put them on a base of a lantern with a battery operated candle.

Whenever I have stems, even if the bush still has flowers on it, I cut those stems off & keep them in a baggie. Saves space & keeps the bush from tangling as much on the others in the same bin.

Great tips. Organization is my downfall. I’ve made a promise to myself that as soon as the holidays are over, I’m organizing my wreath area. I’ve overbought and found I had the items. Every tip was very useful Thank you for sharing!!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

So glad these were all helpful! Yes, that’s where I struggle the most too. But it’s SO helpful! I’ll also be working on my wreath room then! We can do this!

Thank you so much. I do save stems to use as picks, & thanks to your great tutorials, although I dont want a business, it’s just that I’m running out of room, I sold four Christmas wreaths! xx

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Haha yes! I love that you sold 4 Christmas wreaths! That can clear up some space and give you some funds for the next project!

[@kathleenscott4375]

Great tips! Really useful ideas! The tip about organizing is so true. I can't count the times I bought something that I later found I already had. I am in the process of organizing my space, and it's so nice to know exactly where to find something that I need. Thank you for the ideas!

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

So glad you liked them! Yes, everything stems from organization 🙌🏼. Thanks for watching!

Great tips Jenny, organization is key in my opinion. Saves a lot of time and money. Hope your Christmas holiday was enjoyable for you and your family.

Jenny, question you mentioned in your vid that you will be hosting a wreath making classes how would you go about doing that and how much would you charge, please let me know when you get a chance. Thanks

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Hi! I’m working with a local business to set that up. Maybe I should make a video about it. As for how much to charge, that depends on your area, and the cost of the materials and your time.

[@mariemoore2835]

Hi Jenny! I love your videos! I have learned so much in such a short amount of time. I am a creative person and have recently started making balloon garlands and I decorated the office where I work for Christmas. My co-workers loved my decorations and I ended up making 2 more wreaths for two of our other offices. Just last week my boss asked me to make 16 wreaths for our other 4 offices to gift to our referring doctors (I work for a physical therapist clinic) for Valentine's Day. I am making the tulip heart wreath and I will be making a couple of different deco mesh and grapevine wreaths. I was curious, my boss will be paying for all the supplies but, how much would you recommend charging to for my time? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I am also planning on opening an Etsy shop within the next month.

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

Hi Marie! Thanks so much! Wow that’s great that you’re doing that! As far as what to charge for your time, it really depends on how fast you are and how well you make them. Early on I’d charge less, and the better and faster you get, the more you can charge for your time. I would start with charging whatever you currently make per hour at your regular job.

[@mariemoore2835]

@@JennysWreathBoutique Thank you for your reply! That's what I was thinking. I've made wreaths for myself in the past, but never sold them. I'm a perfectionist, so I know they will be made well. lol

Sales were the pits this Christmas...

[@JennysWreathBoutique]

No way! I saw lots of great deals! Online selection was a little more sparse than normal in a couple places, but in stores were pretty great! Of course nothing like last year with all those Christmas florals, but that’s not normal.
