“You’ll need a 10-inch floral wreath form and three duster mop heads from Dollar Tree,” they said.
“Cut the mop heads in half and hot glue them one by one onto the wreath form.
“Three mop heads are just the right number to perfectly fill the form for a soft and full winter wreath.”

“I put battery-operated fairly lights behind mine for a soft and magical glow,” they said.

Commenters certainly liked it.
“This is gorgeous and you can’t beat the price,” said one person.
