25 Days Of Christmas, Day 3

I finally came up with something to do with one of the $22 bird cages that I got last year at Dollar General for a penny. 

I have 4 and they have been sitting in a pile of stuff to go to the thrift store. Our clinic Christmas party is tomorrow and there is a white elephant gift exchange.  I was inspired to try to make something.  I first put in a plastic pillar candle surround but thought it looked too, well, plastic. So I got a styrofoam wreath that fit inside and disassembled a larger wreath and remade it to fit.  

I added a red glass, also a penny from DG and a big red bow.  Now I just needed a candle to put in the glass.  Surprisingly, I did not have a suitable one so I headed to Dollar Tree.  

I switched out the red glass for a white battery operated flickering candle. It was just the thing.  I’ll see tomorrow if it is a hit or not.
