[b]Well, I like it! (
on Wit!
) (I left a note in your photos, btw)
What is that crocheted-looking red stuff, anyway? I had my eye on a lovely wreath in one of my languishing catalogs, but of course, I couldn't afford it! Which reminds me, Monday, when you come, I want to talk to you about Nativity decorations. I have an idea or 2.

Its actually maroon leaf shaped fabric ribbon, wrapped around the form. I thought this was the most "Christmas-y" color I had, I could do another one in fall colors. When I ran out I used the ribbon that I made the bow out of to cover rest of form.

[b]Ah! Okay, yes! Now I understand why it looks like craft magic, & not just "something red I had that I found stuffed in my closet, so I used it." Which would be thrifty & acceptable, of course, but this looks as though it's professionally made! It's very "Christmas-y looking!"

Been there, done that (too many times, I might add).
Simple yet elegant.

[b]Oh, you don't know the half of it, JenInTN! I wish she had good photos up of her amazing work! She crochets, makes candles, fancy pillows, makes gorgeous beaded jewelry--once, a stunning beaded cell phone pouch!--sews, & cross-stitches! I think she must do these things even in her sleep, as she's so prolific...although, perhaps not quite so much now that she's discovered MyBot!
I wish I were "crafty like that," too!

How could you forget the pic of the wreath? I do belive it is to big to miss. I'm I right? or did you take a pic and forget the print. that I can understand.

I've done that before. I've started a discussion on here, and then I've forgotten something important like a picture, or noticed a glaring and quite embarassing typo in the headline, or in the post itsself. The problem is that one can not delete their own content on Mylot, and that is really annoying.

The wreath is beautiful. I like the color and the shape. How long did it take you to make the wreath. I am working on my Christmas crafts as well. I have been painting my ceramic houses and ornaments. I am hoping to get them done this weekend. I am also hoping to have enough money by next year so I can make more crafts and sell them online. I am also in the process of making holiday gift baskets full of cookies, candy, fudge and bread.

maybe a couple of hours - I had these leaf shaped ribbons in that kind of shiny maroon color that I just wrapped around the form - pinning in back Then I took the one lonely gold ribbon and put it around and finally I had a blank area where I didn't have enough ribbon in the right color, so I found that Christmas-y ribbon that I filled in that space and made the bow. I tried the bow at the top but decided it looked better on the bottom - go figure!
I went and got more wreath forms and am currently making one with autumn colors - red-brown and golden yellow - looks pretty good. Almost done, but my hand got tired.



of the wreath - duh 







i was looking for this pic in the other discussion,maybe one mistakes on the mylot part,i would say the creation of yours is quite nice,i sometimes do try,if i have all the ingredients at hand.
