    Love the wreath. If I understand right you use a ceral box cut into a circle for the back. Then sew the yo-yo's in a circle. As you can tell, I'm not quite getting it. Besides we don't eat ceral. What else would work for a base?. Again, love the wreath. Can't wait to try it

    Love it! How about a tute? I'm not good at figuring things out because of medical complications but I do love to do things.

    This is so cute and I love the idea of pressing a circle around a template to get started.

    The directions are at the publishers and should be back by Friday as I'm writing a book on crafts. As soon as I get them I'll pass them on to you.
