The wreath was made by wrapping yarn around a Styrofoam wreath form. Then I tied a lovely bow out of some Amy Butler fabric scraps I had. I believe I was inspired by something I saw in an Anthropologie catalog, but for a while I just thought I was a crafting genius.
My tree I have given the name "the friendship tree" as many of the ornaments were contributions from some dear friends. TWIMO-er Britt (my DG little sis) gave me the laser cut wooden snow flakes from Roost and the red and white vintage-esque ones are from TWIMO-er and comment contributor Ms. Alison. Thanks for making my Christmas bright! I also used my grandmother's vintage lace as a garland and made a tree topper by cover a wooden star bought at Michael's with that lovely Amy Butler fabric again. Next year I will be adding lovely glass ornaments I bought in Germany.
Hope all you TWIMOers have a lovely holiday wherever you may be and remember the world is your oyster so be merry and make it lovely!
Yay for Christmas decortions! Ann and I were horrible. On the 22nd she bought a mini tree from the Publix. And some scented pine cones. I will make a wreath with yarn or twine and joy.
ReplyDeleteOk . . . what is a decortion? Geez, take a few days off work and I forget Englihs. (That second typo was unintentional, but its easy hilarity was a keeper.)
