Welcome to the December edition of the Creative Craft Blog Hop!
Thank you to Andrea from Design Morsels for being our hostess
If you’re here from My Thrift Store Addiction, Welcome!
We don’t get much snow in Alabama,
but I love to celebrate the four seasons anyway I can,
so I made this wintery wreath…
Come January it will replace the Christmas one on the front door
I had a tired, green grapevine wreath in my stash
I spray painted it white and then added a layer of silver spray paint
I added a wire garland of glass beads* around the perimeter
*{Pottery Barn years ago}
Digging again through my craft and decor stash,
I chose some sprigs of cotton boles
because the fluffy white cotton reminds me of snow
Then I added a few bottle brush trees and a large pine cone
As much as I liked the pine cone,
I had my heart set on a snowman…
more digging….
and found this one, a perfect fit!
He looked quite happy to participate!
I tucked some trees around him and secured everything with hot glue*
*go back and secure with a more weatherproof glue like E6000
if the wreath is going to be outside
I added a black and white checked and a silver ribbon for a final touch
When January arrives I will greet it with this Snowy Winter Wreath!
It is so much fun to create with things you already have!
