We're making a fall wreath and all we bought was the wheat circle, which we found at a thrift shop for 75 cents.
We have some glue sticks and a hot glue gun, purchase before we were so committed to buying in the USA, it's made in China, as are the sticks. When we run out of glue sticks we'll see if we can locate any made in the USA.
We decided to keep to our budget and start picking up seed pods and dry leaves and branches, whatever looks interesting, when we take our dog for a walk. Now we have pine cones and so much else to glue to our wreath at no cost to us and we're getting our exercise too!
You might make a wreath using pop bottle tops or other items that are already bought when you bought the pop or whatever. Corks from wine bottles and spools from thread can be used again as art materials.
Inexpensive or free items that can be recycled are art materials you can use to make so many crafty projects!
Don't forget to buy a pumpkin for Halloween that can be eaten. Toast the seeds for snacking!
At Christmas buy a tree with roots that can be planted and skip the polluting bonfire!
