I've been thinking of what kind of wreath will match my blue door. And then I saw my friend make a wreath out of acorns she found in the woods. So I thought I'd try to make a wreath. Here is my first go at it. Thought it would be super cheap since I got most the stuff at the dollar store, but I bet it ended up costing me $15 plus the $5 for the wreath hanger from Target. Either way, I got major satisfaction from using my glue gun, so gotta take advantage when those crafty waves come, because they are not consistent.

Its hanging up right now for my neighbors to see. Who cares if its not Thanksgiving yet.

I'm obviously channeling my inner Rudolph cause I have a bright red zit on my nose and about 14 more all over my face that refuse to be covered up. Apparently my face thinks its 13 again.

Another note, Luke said in the car, " I don't like to clean cause I'm just used to dirty." How rude boy, I take that personally.

The blue door is also holding up nicely. Well done!! - and I am jealous of the 'crafty.' Not an ounce of it exists in this body!

Awesome!! I love making wreaths...they are pretty simple and very fulfilling as far as satisfaction level :D...It is taking everything in me to not turn everything Christmas...I put up my Christmas Shower curtain yesterday... but I am going crazy tomorrow after Kevin's birthday party. I don't want his preschool friends' moms to think i'm nuts, not yet anyway :D

So fun! I am so impressed! I so have the Christmas spirit too. I put up my tree on Thursday night, and I love it...especially since there is snow on the ground.

That looks so good Brooke. Also, What is going on with our faces. I don't get it, I have never had Acne this bad ever. I look like I have chicken poxs. I have at least 25 zits on my face. Nasty! Anywho.. Cute wreath.
