I am so excited! On the way home from the Make It With Wool contest the weekend before last, we stopped at Hobby Lobby. They were having a big discount on their wreaths and wreath decorations, so I got the components for making a very groovy, glittery, fruit-themed wreath.
This is very exciting to me because almost all of our decorations have been gifts. When we were first married, we intentionally purchased some ornaments and lights, but since then, we just haven’t really deliberately budgeted for any new decorations. I greatly appreciate all of the personalized ornaments and gorgeous nativity sets and beautifully monogrammed stockings that we have been given. I also appreciate the “Charlie Brown” artificial tree that we got for free at an auction. I am perfectly content with our decorations.
Yet, I am so excited about putting together this new wreath that coordinates with our fruit-themed kitchen/dining room/living room. And I have the perfect “excuse” for getting it all pulled together because of Holiday Super Cruising Mission #1. Glittery fruit, here I come….
