Christmas Idea Time - Day 4

I love to make wreaths!  I make them for all seasons, from anything I can dream up, and I have to give most of them away because I can't store everything I make.  This Christmas I got out a wreath and my first thoughts were wow, this is pretty, wonder where I bought that?  Then I looked at the bow, and realized that was my ribbon and my bow, I had made the wreath!  LOL

Here are some of the wreaths I have made, as I said I give them away and often forget to take pictures so I've asked the reciepients to send me pictures...

Here is the wreath hanging in our house that I didn't know where I bought it, lol!

I made this wreath this year for a gift using my Pebbles DT products, click here for more details.

Gave this one away...

I made 2 of these and love them, you really do use a lot of balls though.  One was made using my Grandmother's vintage Christmas balls and was very delicate, but a wonderful way to preserve memories after the tree has been put away.

This wreath was made with Webster's Pages goodies and ribbon, I rolled 6x6 pieces of paper to form cones.  A detail shot follows...

I made this wreath for my grandmom using muslim, twine and burlap after being inspired by Christy Tomlinson's first ornament class, she has one going on now too.

I gave most of my Christmas goodies away when we moved to FL because I was having a hard time grasping how to celebrate Christmas when it is warm.  While I miss making these goodies I have been too busy this year.  Maybe next year I will put together a few wreaths!  Thanks for joining me this week for a peak of Christmas goodies, I will be back tomorrow with a Christmas layout!

Christmas Idea Time - Day 3

Ornaments!  I have made many different types over the years and constantly see more that I want to try, but my tree is quite full and also baby proofed right now so some of the ideas will have to wait!

Christmas Idea Time - Day 2

Christmas Idea Time - Day 1

I thought I would take the next few days and share some Christmas projects I have made over the past year.  Some have been on my blog before and other haven't, enjoy!

Let's start with our advent calender that I made last year.  This project used Bella Blvd products and the numbers were from Lily Bee.  Here is the original post with step-by-step pictures.

I thought I'd share a few other Bella projects that I loved from last year too.

Here is the link to the canvas' original post.

Here is the original post for the flower ornament and the flower tree.

See you tomorrow for some more ideas to get your Christmas hopping!
