wreaths

i caught the coffee-filter-music-sheet wreath bug.

they really are simple to make!

AND...

look lovely!

i made the coffee filter wreath without know where i was placing it.

 it hung for a while on the elk antlers,

and a few other strange places.

eventually, out of sheer desperation,

 i hung it over the laundry-leading-to-the-garage door for the Christmas House Tour.

perfect!

it filled a blank i didn't know was there.

i like!

aren't her ruffles pretty?

 after stitching a ring on the end,

a screw on the other side of the door keeps the upholstery tape (a thrift find) in place,

 and...

- ta-da -

 there she hangs!

(LOVE those ruffles!)

now when i walk through the kitchen into the laundry,

this is what i see!

truely like!

(maybe, just maybe...i'll do a white one!)

after talking to this talented gal who follows blogs...
(but doesn't blog herself)

 i knew i was ready to try the sheet music wreath.

 

i glued a bull's eye mirror in the center.

both are very easy to make!
i found most of my sheet music at a local thrift shop,
and am eager to do more projects with it...
after the New Year!

...blessedness!
