Burlap Christmas Wreaths
Crafter Level: Intermediate
Time needed: 1½ hours
A dozen white doves, yards of gathered green ribbon and a snowflake ornament as a tree topper give this tree a fanciful look.
Decorate your finished tree with colorful pom-poms, rickrack and trim for a homey look. Use hot glue to attach the decorations.
Who needs sugarplums dancing in your head when you have delicious and colorful candy canes for decoration? Tie them to your tree with green ribbons and add a yummy lollipop to the top for the perfect finishing touch.
Jeanne Field enjoys quilting, killer sudoku and washi-tape hoarding in her free time—which she has more of now that her 2 kids are in college. She hopes to live 1,000 or so more years so she can make ALL the quilts.
