Well, here's the end result of the random assortment of items. I call her Autumn, Goddess of the harvest. I painted the mask and did a paint technique with some bubble wrap on her face. I hot glued some brown burlap to the edges of the mask to make a hood for her head. I stuffed the hood with plastic grocery bags. I glued the head to the candlestick, which I then glued to the bunch of twigs, which, when flipped upside-down, made a nice dress. I cut the Autumn wreath in half and glued half of it to her head to make a halo, and then stripped the leaves off the other half an attached them to the bodice of her "dress." I snapped the other half of the wreath into two pieces to make wings, which I inserted into the back of the twigs holding the bunch together. I hot glued the necklace, added another candlestick as a base to hold her up, and covered that with brown burlap as well. I added some moss for her hair and touches on her bodice, and anchored the weight of her big head with some silk flowers at the base. I think I'll probably add some arms, draped in brown burlap, to balance her out in the middle. What do you think?

The non-traditional color scheme on this Holiday wreath, made for my friend who loves hot pink, makes me HAPPY. My cost: $32.

Guess what this random stuff will be.
