This would be a cute idea for children to make for ornaments. Materials: Recycled Puzzle pieces Green Spray Paint Red Paint Craft glue Ribbon for hanging Instructions: This is a great way to use those puzzles that have so many missing pieces are not worth doing. Try your local Charity store also. Start by laying out your puzzle pieces on some newspaper. Spray paint them with a thin layer of green spray paint. Apply a few light coats till the pieces are well covered. Lay the pieces over the top of each other to form the wreath. Glueing each piece as you go. To make a bigger wreath lay the pieces 2-3 pieces wide. Using the red paint place drops of red paint onto each piece to represent holly berries. Glue on a ribbon bow and a small thin cord for hanging. Use some glitter to line the edges for a extra festive feel.

I know this discussion was posted ages ago, but I wanted to leave a comment anyway! This is a great idea! Every year I scour the internet for new ideas for Christmas ornaments to make with my children. This one will definitely be filed away for next year! Thanks for the great idea.
