Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
So, November totally flew by! It was like I packaged up the Halloween decorations and now I am pulling out my snowmen and Christmas items. This blog started with the making of a wreath {and then a ton of wreathes after that} so I like to be sure and share the newest wreath I make each year for Christmas. This year, I am going for a pretty traditional and rustic feel so my burlap and plaid Christmas wreath fits in perfectly.

So, each month, a group of blogger friends and I get together to do a themed post. These women are amazingly creative and always knock it out of the park. In honesty, I typically forget about it until the week before or I just plain run out of time. Yep…I’m that person in the group! This month, our theme was numbers. I was stuck for so long because I couldn’t run into the kitchen and turn out something number related with ease. Instead, I did what I normally do when I am stuck…I talked to H and got her involved with the project. The result: this super cute back to school wreath with numbers.

Our front door is usually the first place you catch a glimpse of an upcoming holiday or new season. So far this year, I have been a little slow to get a new wreath up. My goal for Easter was to get a new wreath up before April 1st and I just barely made that goal. My Easter ribbon wreath was finished on March 31st and I put it out on the morning of the 1st. Score!

Let’s talk quick and easy crafts. You know…the ones you do when you realize it is already February and the wreath on your front door is still the same one from Christmas. Yeah, that kind of “oh no, gotta get a new wreath out stat” kind of craft. That’s what this Valentine’s Day Ruffled Ribbon Wreath is all about. I seriously realized 2 days ago that I still had the Christmas wreath up and it was February. Blogger fail…scratch that…just human fail!

September is always a funny month here. One day {yesterday} it still feels like summer with temperatures above 90 degrees. Then, the next {today} the temperature will top out in the 70s. It is really hard to feel like decorating for one season or another because you are constantly being thrown between two seasons. I didn’t let the hot weather stop me though from starting on my fall decorating. I used the heat as a reason to stay inside and test out my new hot glue gun instead creating my fall felt leaf wreath.

You know I love a good wreath. Wreathes were one of the first crafts I ever made and I still love making them. From yarn to ribbon to paint, I am always up for making a new wreath.
For July 4th, I decided to start with ribbon for my wreath.

With every season change {and sometimes more often}, I like to change the wreath on our front door. Most often, this comes in the form of a ribbon wreath.
Now, spring has been here for a little while but our very brown winter wreath was still hanging out on the front door. So, this weekend, I decided it was time to infuse a little color out there. Of course, I stopped over on Pinterest for a little inspiration.
Then, I made mine.

Yep, you read that right. I made a Christmas wreath…without yarn. Not even a single strand of yarn! Shocker, I know.
