Wreath making time. Himself found inexpensive wreaths at the big, orange box store. I'm not sure my heart was really into the project. Only one wreath to make for our door instead of a wreath for my parents' door and for Prissy's door.
But The Eldest brought a huge bunch of holly from the town Christmas fair. Would have been a shame to let it go to waste. Rummaging through the Christmas box I found some large bells, cardinals, and the holly bow I've been using for the past several years. Put it all together and hung it on the door. Didn't feel like decorating the wreaths that we hang on the front windows. No one can see the decorations from the street. Himself hung them with the red outdoor bows that came attached.
A trip to the Oakwood Christmas Barn in Spencer inspired me to add to the wreath after I saw some gorgeous wreaths there. Another rummage in the bauble box for some pinecones, and I remembered a bag of nuts in the shells languishing somewhere in the pantry.
Ta-da!
