The other day my Mum and I went to an estate sale. We scored a ton of Shiny Brites. Earlier this year she also found a treasure trove of them at an auction. We decided it was time to sit down and make some more wreaths.
Even after making these we still have a ton more. The problem is I like them all and don't want to give them up. How many wreaths can one girl justifiably hang in her house?

I want one of these so much I may have to beg my friends to send me their unwanted Christmas baubles! I have always wanted to make one, but seeing these...I am just over the moon in love. They are retro and vintage and just so stinkin' amazing that I am giddy over them! Thanks for sharing with us at Craft Hoarders Anonymous!
ReplyDeleteWow! Thank you Gloria. I have to say I love them so very much myself. I just want to keep making them. They are just so happy.
DeleteJess
I love your wreaths! I, too, have a dream about creating a sparkly, glittery wreath someday. I collect pink ornaments whenever I find them. Would you be willing to share how you put your wreaths together? I'd love some help in knowing how to create such beautiful Christmas wreaths. Thanks for considering and have a very Merry Christmas!
