Succulent Wreath. This succulent wreath is so easy & inexpensive, and it stays alive all year round!
I saw a gorg version on the cover of the new Viva Terra catalog and I knew I had to make one, cause I don’t have $100 to spend on a plant. My house is filled with succulents, one of the many bonuses of being a BFF of a fabulous succulent designer. She taught me that you can just chop off a bit of a living succulent and it will grow into a new plant! So that’s what I did, clipped from living plants (I might have taken a few from a local park, if it doesn’t kill the plant that’s not stealing right?)
A quick and fun project. Yarn-Wrapped Love Wreath. This year I decided we needed a new wreath. I wanted to make one myself but I needed a project that was quick, simple and inexpensive. I also wanted to make something colourful and cute, rather than traditional. I like glittery things as much as the next girl, but I’m slowly trying to get away from red, green and gold and make our decorations more bright and colourful. I think bright suits us better. Faux Curled Rosewood Wreath. I have seen various versions of Faux Rosewood Wreaths in just about every store and catalog for the upcoming season; most with a price tag running upwards of $40 or more.
Some are crafted of paper and other of real wood shavings. Last year I made a few rolled flower gift toppers from recycled book pages and they remind me so much of the curled wood roses I thought they would make a good substitute. {with a much lower price tag}
