Making of the Christmas wreath


we have been making homemade wreaths last 9 years at home,using thermocol round shaped rings or the rigid embroidery ring as wreath holders but you will be surprised knowing how we make it, yes it was indeed Mama's idea to use the cycle alluminium rims last 6 years. Pass a satin ribbon through one of the hole in the rim to hang the wreath.Now wrap a shining garland or streamer around it.

Don't you think the wreaths looks pretty besides the most easy to make. You can wrap around more decorative strings, just as we did with the green wreath.
 A Christmas decoration given by my friend sharvari in our building 5 days before Christmas.We put this at the centre of the wreath.
 The wreath looked very nice at the centre of our ceiling of our living room.
We put this outside in our small garden
Mama put the crystal ball at the centre of the wreath.( Last year we had a larger rim borrowed from the cycle shop)

Making this wreath took a lot of time as Mama made bows and she used staple and thread to keep the bows and stars in place.
well this rose from the ribbon was made by me,which we put in the centre of the wreath.

We did make small wreaths to hang along the curtain rods at the centre too.
