Monday Marvellous - Christmas Wreaths

{wreaths: image}
Well, the festive season is soon to be upon us. I've done most of my gift shopping, I've started to think about preparing the advent calendar, writing the cards and so on, I'm sure it will all snowball from here (pardon the pun!!).
 So let's start to get in the Christmas mood with these fab modern wreaths from Etsy (below)...

I'm thinking of making one myself this year. I never have before, In fact a wreath is not something we usually have in my family, but I'm thinking 'why not?' this year! I'll let you know (if I find the time, and) if I do it!!

Here is my favourite one that I have found (on the internet at Pickles. ) Cute, hey?!


I love this one too!
here's the fabulous tutorial on how to make it
