Wreaths {I will not be making}

Since we are moving next week I am not really able to participate in much, ok any, decor decorating/creating. But I thought I would share with you all the ideas that are floating through my head. Oh how I wish I could create some this gorgeous eye candy. Well, here it is for YOUR eyes to feast upon. Hopefully some of you will be able to create this Christmas.

My total favorites: The white and red berries, the newspaper wreath and the mini pine cone wreath. Enjoy, and PLEASE share with me your wonderful wreaths. They don't have to look like these here. I just really want to live vicariously through you all and your beautiful wreaths. Is that too much to ask?

Christmas Decor: Wreath Edition

Wreaths have a wonderful way of ringing in the new season. What I love most about them is their diversity. You can make wreath look however you like and still bring Christmas Cheer! Here are some ideas for you to consider when making your wreath this year.

Snowball Wreath

Perfect for little ones to help make, just hot glue fuzzy white pom-poms to styrofoam or cardboard bases and you have a very festive winter wreath.

Pretty Bow Wreath

Start with a Styrofoam base and wrap with a 2" ribbon. Hot Glue ribbons until completely covered. Beautiful.

Making Memories Wreath

This is perfect to give as a gift (especially for grandparents). Make frames out of wrapping paper or painted popsicle sticks and glue to an evergreen wreath. Add colourful bulbs and you have a gift worth hanging every year.

Cinnamon Stick Wreath

Cover a styrofoam base with 2" ribbon and hot glue cinnamon sticks until completely covered. This can make a wonderful room air-freshener as well!

Buttoned-Up Wreath

I am looking forward to making this one! This is perfect if you have a huge button stash, and it is perfect for little ones as well. Start with a cardboard base and hot glue buttons until you like the look. Use different colours that match your decor or strong colours to make a bold statement.

Snowy Pine cone Wreath

Scavenge your backyard or neighbourhood for those perfect pine cones. Spray with flocking and this baby will be ready to welcome winter with open arms.
