Default Christmas Wreaths, Jingle Bell lalalalalal

I thought I would share this wreath with you. I had bought this huge wreath from a friend of mine who had a flower shop. I have had it for 2 years, I think. I knew I would need lots of picks to decorate it and I had no intention of spending so much money lol.....so, like I always do, I wished upon a star.

Lo and behold, I got my wish finally. I thought about it enough lol. Here it is hanging on the front door. The sun was a bit bright in the back, so I backed up to a tree at a distance and crept a bit closer twice. I think I captured it. It has berry picks and leaves, cranapples, pine cones and lots of the ornament balls.

I will be showing a wreath in a pot soon and small tree decorated the same way so stay tuned.
I am doing a technique on the wreath in a pot. You spray it first with a gold glitter, about three coats and then spray with a crackle to crackle it....it started to rain, so I had to stop.

I have a huge box that I spray in and I wear a painter's mask for protection from the fumes and I close the box until it 's time for the second or third coat.
