Christmas Mini Wreaths

Well, it looks like I am getting the Wellness Center's Christmas goodies done just under the wire!!  I finished them up last night, as I need to get them to my daughter tomorrow.  I saw these on a youtube video during the summer - yes, I waited until now to do them - and thought they were so cute and knew the clients would love them.  There are a lot of videos making different kinds you can check out.  These are made with plastic shower hooks and evergreen stems. 

The ones I made took 4 stems to wrap around the hook using hot glue to secure them.

I ended up making 25 of them.  It took about 10 minutes to wrap one. 

You can decorate them in various ways.  I glued on some gold bows I had in my stash and then some gold beads for some decoration.  I tried gluing some colored beads I had, but I felt they were too small and didn't have any larger ones.  I also tried wrapping some seed beads I had in my stash but didn't like how the string was showing in the back so just went with the gold beads.

Here is one that I made for Jennifer's doll house.  She is decorating it for Christmas and I thought she would like to hang this on the front door.

Here is the tray all ready to go to the Wellness Center.

On a personal note, my daughter Jeannie, Jennifer, Joe and myself were down at Lancaster for the weekend.  This was their Christmas present to us along with tickets to the America Music Theater to see the Christmas program - Joy to the  World.  We had so much fun!  We had never gone to that theater before.  It was so pretty!

On Monday, Jennifer had her Christmas Concert which we didn't get to because of the weather and now she is home with slight pneumonia and on antibiotics for two weeks!!  Hopefully, it won't go through the family like it did one year!  Well, now I have a pile of Christmas presents that need wrapping and the sun is out and it is snowing!!   The days are flying by!

Thanks for stopping by,
