SO Last Year

I know these are so last year...or maybe even the year before that...but when I saw these wreaths all over the internet way back when, I knew I wanted to make one. And I finally did.

Ya'll- I am not crafty. I like to think I am going to be, but that is unlikely. Other than a stint enjoying cross stitching when I was about 8 years old, I have not crafted anything. Or at least not very much of anything. I just did not get that creative bone.

But these were easy. Of course, being not-crafty, I made it harder than it needed to be. For example, I bought a straw wreath and like a dummy, I took off the plastic. Why did I do that? Straw was everywhere. And even now, straw sticks out between the yarn in some spots. Oh well, we'll say it gives it a 'country' look.

Oh, and did I actually consider what color my front door was when picking out yarn? Of course not! That would be too clever. So the fact that my door is off-white and the yarn is off-white and so they match is a little unfortunate. Whoops. We'll just say it gives it a 'camouflage' look.

But, I did have fun making this project. And now my door is not naked. Maybe I'll even have the motivation to make one in the fall!
