Which I made the other day.  Base is a block of Oasis (but it is re-used from last year), with a metal hanger bent into a specific shape and wired to the oasis to hang it up.  Cones are from previous Morrison's Christmas wreaths; bow re-made from this year's Morrison's wreath (I put my own bow on) with a bit of garden twine added as a second bow.  And the green bits I cut out from our golden yew.

Thanks, Maria. This is the second time I've done it, although more greenery last year - next year it will be more pinecones, when I've scavenged the ones off this year's Morrison's wreath!

That's true, Di! Just have to hope for the best, although hasn't taken the wreath in previous years, so fingers crossed.

Fabulous, looks great against the stone wall. I bet it looks good with the lamp on too. Nice work.

Why buy something when you can re-use it or get it for free, Alison!
