Christmas Wreath~re-vamp!

I bought this basic wreath from a fundraiser at my daughters pre-school (see below). It was fine as-is, but it was missing something...
I didn't want anything over the top (my home is more comfy-cozy than fancy and sparkle). I found some ribbon and made a bow...every wreath needs a bow! And then added more pine-cones, but these had a little bit of glitter on the tips. It was looking better, but was still not quite there.
I went digging around in my Christmas boxes and found one of my favorite Wendy Addison ornaments to hang in the center.
I think it turned out pretty good for a 5 minute wreath re-vamp!
What do you think?
