I’ve been wanting to make wreaths for the holidays, but never got around to it. I had a plan to make five, and bought supplies for one… which just sat around my room for weeks. Last night I decided to finally put it together, and here’s what I got:
Pretty cool, huh? Kept it simple with small clusters of ruffles rather than covering the entire wreath with ruffles. All-in-all, it took about 40 minutes to make… Only 10 minutes to actually make the wreath, and 30 minutes trying to tie a pretty bow and deciding how to hang it.
Sorry for the crappy picture.. we have bad lighting in the house and I was using my camera phone. The wreath is wrapped with forest green ribbon (leftover Williams-Sonoma present ribbon from wrapping). The felt ruffles are white with maroon pom-poms glued inside.
And here’s a shot of our Christmas tree at home..
We’ve decided that it’s time for it to get donated to a better cause, so this will be it’s last year at our house… Good bye fiber-optic Christmas tree..
Great wreath! I love the simple look of it. and your flowers are gorgeous!
Woah big boxes!
