I gathered all kinds of grasses, weeds, flowers, and fillers. I am proud of myself. I made my very 1st wreath. Now, I still need to make the bow for it, but what do you think, do you like it? What could be added, fixed..what are your thughts?

Welcome! Welcome!

I think your wreath is BEAUTIFUL just as it is. I don't think it needs a ribbon.

Garden lady.. I tip my hat to you. Very nice representation for a beautiful fall wreath.
Reminds me to get my grape vines harvested for wreaths… ugh…
I’m so busy... “I don’t know if I found a rope or lost a horse.”

So, for the last few months, I have totally been engulfed in wreath making. I started out with some simple fall wreaths, then as I gained some experience, I moved to Christmas wreaths.
Night and day, I was obsessed...what can I do next is what I kept thinking.
They are artificial, but they are awesome. I have sold about 10 of them.
I made a collage of the xmas wreaths I have made.

I am proud of these wreaths, but the pictures dont do them justice.
I thought I'd share..
