Fall wreaths adorn the wall outside our front door, and also in the garage at the door coming into the house. I like that bit of Autumn color welcoming me home, and greeting guests no matter which door we use. Because our garage was added to the home sometime after it was built, there is …

Autumn Jubilee – Kitchen Wreath
Autumn Jubilee continues today with a project featuring a new idea for your jelly roll strip leftovers. We'll make an Autumn Kitchen Wreath! Of course, you could use Christmas fabric jelly roll strips for a Christmas theme wreath, or really any color scheme you like. Use your kitchen colors for an everyday addition to your …
A Merry Christmas Wreath
This year's holiday wreath is silver and red, inspired by the number of silk poinsettias in the stash. I have spools of wire edged ribbon and making big bows is very easy with it. I have a tutorial on making big bows HERE. Knowing I wanted a good size bow, I started with that. Attaching …
Winter Projects
We had our first snow of the season beginning Friday afternoon. It started earlier than expected, and I was happy to get my appointments done, attend a memorial service, and get DH from the airport before the road froze. After we were home for half an hour or so, I saw that the turkeys were …

Pine Cone Candle Wreath
Last year we had a tree fall in the forest on our property, and part of it landed on the driveway. So, no choice but to cut it up and move it. It was a black locust, which is really nice hardwood. So, in exchange for giving the wood to our wood-worker neighbor, he was …
Harvest Wreaths
The first crafting project for Autumn Jubilee is an Autumn wreath. I have two that I have used for a couple of years now, both need some work. The bows are looking a bit faded and sad, and one has a bunch of bare spots. It just so happens that I have a yard full …
Le Challenge – Wood
I like the idea of a challenge where you have barely 30 days to figure something out, make it and then show it, all within a challenge theme. That is how it works at Le Challenge, and this month the theme was Wood. Just so happens that I have a project I have been putting …
Winter Wreath
It was a little late in the month by the time I got around to making a holiday wreath. I thought it would be nice to have one that would last through the winter, yet be appropriate for the Christmas holiday. Instead of doing my usual greenery with red accents, I used more of a …
