Spring wreath

Another new name Sue — Sun, 28 Feb 2016 16:23:55 GMT

I went to Michaels to look at spring wreaths for the front door. They were pricey ($59) and didn't look that great, to me.

Found the Bethlehem lights wreath here and ordered one. The yellow and white is gone; I got the red/orange mix.

Love daisies. So springy. My weakness, though, is berries ~ any season of the year. I bought a wreath from pier1.com when I received a 20% off coupon. It's gorgeous on my dining room table with one of valeries wire hurricanes sitting inside with a luminar candle inside that.

I find wreath shopping difficult. My front door gets full sun in the afternoon and most wreaths fade. I get a season or two out of them. The wreath you selected looks nice and full.

That's exactly why after 40 years I no longer hang a wreath on my front door.....fixed income helped with my decision!!

I bought the stuff I needed from Hobby Lobby & made my own.

happygal, you made a good choice. Very pretty!

I do the same, nightowlz. Hobby Lobby has some really nice, inexpensive wreaths that you can decorate any way you want. I have one for each season.

I have trouble ever finding a wreath I can say I totally love. They are so expensive, that I don't want to buy one I just 'like', so I rarely buy one.

I just pretty much do without, or use the ones I do find that I "love" until they are no longer so lovable!

@Another new name Sue Enjoy your new wreath. There is nothing like freshening up the entryway to one's home.

@Mominohio Thank you. I am in CA where we are suffering drought even tho' some parts of the state are getting rain, Southern CA is not. So I won't be planting any annuals this spring, probably. The wreath can be a substitute.

I agree it's hard to find pretty wreaths. Most at Michaels were just gobs of flowers all around. I like a wreath with a center of interest or some interesting features other than fake flowers (like @Nightowlz wreath with the bow). The QVC wreath is pretty much just flowers all around, but I'm happy with it and the price. Might have found it cheaper in a store, but I get sick of running around and around and around!

I've been looking for a wreath too, bought a tulip one from pier one but returned it, looked at Michaels and Hobby Lobby and Joann and still not seeing what I like.

Too bad Valerie doesn't do another auto delivery series of wreaths like she did 5 or 6 years ago. I got them all...they're so well made, cute and "different". Mine are still going strong; I've really enjoyed them.♡
