A Wreath for All Seasons

The first few weeks of the year I always find myself bored to tears because I catch up on everything I need to, and find myself idle...for a girl with this much energy, that doesn't last long. I had an idea for a gift for my grandmother and decided to take it on since I found myself with extra time. What I didn't realize, was how QUITE ambitious this was! She loves to decorate for each holiday so I thought I would create a wreath for her (that seems to be my specialty these days) that she could leave hanging the whole year, but change out the decor for each season. I started with Easter, then Memorial Day and 4th of July. Then I found some adorable chevron ribbon (this girl can NOT pass up anything chevron) that I could use for Halloween. Finally, I thought I had to finish out the year with Christmas. It still needed more, so I added monogramming for that final oomph! I put pieces of velcro on the wreath and then on the decor she could change out. I was pleased with the outcome and even better, she loved it!
