Decorating With Wreaths

Ranked #6,270 in Home & Garden, #94,451 overall

Lets get down to business ;)

As you can see, wreaths for the door can be featured year round. I have four at the moment... one for each season. Actually, that would be eight because I feature a wreath on both sides of the front door! It just occurred to me that I probably have bags and bags of "stuff" that I could use to fashion something close to this gorgeous wreath... not AS GORGEOUS, but maybe close.

But I don't have one made of bubble gum. Just might have to remedy that!

Not quite for the door, but it would be nice for that bare spot on the wall that calls out for something seasonal! You could even use scented candles in keeping with the season

The Kitchen Wreath

Muslin Spice BagsI remember this craft from sometime in the seventies and unfortunately the one I made is long gone, but in a nutshell, you crocheted little bags in colors that matched your kitchen and then tucked in little muslin bags filled with broken bits on cinnamon sticks. (They really added a wonderful scent to the kitchen). If I can remember correctly, there was anywhere from 10 to 12 bags, tied onto the grapevine wreath with bits of colored yarn.

Darn I wish I still had that wreath... on the other hand, I could always make another one! ;)

Use Wire Hangers

In need of a Valentine's Day Wreath? Take a wire hanger and then stretch it into a full circle. Tie 10 inch strips of plastic wrap around the wire. It will take you a while but when you are finished you have a fluffy white wreath! Add a red ribbon bow and you are done!

The Best Wreaths...

... are often created using materials in your own back yard. Take lavender for example... it's easy to grow and can be tucked into just about any wreath that you can dream up. Another couple of freebies are acorns and pine cones... Go for a walk and see what you can find! I can almost guarantee that you are going to amaze yourself!

Or if you are in a rush, you can simply order your sachets and then start from there. I was just reading about a simple vine wreath with tiny sachets tied to the vines. It would look gorgeous in a bedroom and I would think that the scent would help to lull you to sleep!

Now this man knows how to turn a passion into a business. I wonder if he has a biography out to date?? And yes, I love the wreath!

Seasonal Wreaths

Take one grapevine wreath and then make little add-ons to tie on to the wreath. One year I made little salt dough hearts for a valentine wreath. The bough was the touch of red!

Today's Wreath

The colors have been chosen for the Christmas season, but it would be simple enough to choose colors for any season at all! I was amazed at how simple this was to make.
