Christmas Wreath re-do

I kept putting off working on my wreaths this year because really, I didn't know what to do with them. I was tired of the plain Jane look they had. (sorry to my jane's out there!!).

Here is the before. I was into the deep reds/burgundy colors and minimalism. ( or most likely I took apart another decoration for parts!!!)
And sadly, that was that. But in my defense, these bad boys were straight out of storage. No 'fluffing' (as a dear friend calls it) had been done.

So, I took what little bits of decor that was actually there out and started with a blank canvas so to speak.

Between feeding kids, changing diapers, kissing boo-boo's and then putting them all to bed, this is what I came up with...
I found the polka-dot ribbon at Walmart and fell in love. Knew I had to do something with it. Was very excited to use it on the wreaths!!

Now, on our door. And yes, it, being our entrance, needs SO much more but. Don't think it will happen this year

My ornaments for church



I'm so excited!  I finished my ornaments for our church's "Hanging of the Greens" this coming Sunday.  All the families go up and hang ornaments on the trees.  I had so much fun tonight decorating them.  I "glittered" them the other night and had a few extras to finish up.  With those, I did this:

The ribbon was a left over, the "JOY" was Cell Phone Bling from Walmart (I kid you not, CELL PHONE BLING), BUT, the  the bling was a FAIL.  I ended up having to glue them on myself.  Their stickiness stuck to the plastic backing.



I'm still hoping and praying.  So far central KY hasn't been blessed with any snow.  Makes a snow loving mommy mad!!! 

All together now!!

This is my "Snow Angel" ornament.  Inside, which you can't see, is a Angel with "faith" inscribed on it.  On the back I glued more "cell phone bling" as a cross.


I'm telling ya, CELL PHONE BLING!!!  Don't know why I find this so funny!!



Packaged and ready for Sunday!!!
