I love a wreath…but not just any wreath. 
Here are a few of my favorites this holiday season!

My dearest friend in the world, Sydney Kiefner, needlepointed this gorgeous wreath. I’m in awe of many many talents she has, but her needlepoint game is tops! I wish you could see the back it’s a beautiful green velvet…much like my shoes. I love you Sydney. 
What to do:
 Step 1. Have a friend who needlepoints make you a wreath. 

3. Pom Pom Wreath

  1. Great ideas! Love the pom poms, especially! What kind of yarn do you use for your pom poms? Thanks and Happy Holidays!

  2. Thank you!!! I use anything thick and cheap! 🙂 Seriously, I buy thick yarn in my colors whenever I see it on sale. The thin stuff doesn’t make a good pom pom. Best, Libbie
