Ornament Wreath and Giveaway

This morning I woke from dreaming about giveaways and going on a cruise. My hair looks like a mess. I think that is from the part when I won the cruise and I screamed "Nooooo!". Not the typical response. Maybe I'm thinking about those poor people who went on a cruise and the cruise ship broke down.

My blog is still under construction. I've got codes on my brain. Those darn codes!!! At times my blog will look kind of crazy...like it does now because the codes are doing what I want them too!!! Thanks for the kind emails of encouragement. I need it :)

Last year I saw fun ornament wreaths popping up everywhere and knew I wanted to make one.

I used the tutorial from Eddie Ross. It's a fun and easy project. You can get your ornaments from the dollar store or I got mine from Target. They have boxes of 50 ornaments for $15.00 in their Christmas section. I love these colors!

Now for the GET YOU CRAFTING series of giveaways. I have two ornaments wreath kits to giveaway (below). You will receive everything to make one of these beauties. All you have to do is (1) become a follower of my blog and (2) leave a comment. Make sure in that comment you leave a way for me to contact you. This giveaway will end on Monday November 22, 2010. I will annouce the winner that night and then move onto a new giveaway. I've got a bunch of stuff just waiting for you...

You can either win this kit which includes gold, red and silver ornaments from Target.

Or this kit which includes red, green, gold and silver ornaments from the dollar store.

In each of the kits I will include some hot glue sticks and a wire hanger.

Yarn Wreath

My blog and email are having some problems...not sure what is going on! Please be patient with me as I try to figure it out :)

Try something new this week. How about a yarn wreath? I love all the different textures in this project from the wood to the yarn to the burlap rosettes. So much fun!
