I’ve been holed up in Santa’s Workshop, Southern Branch, feverishly working to have things ready for the Country Living Fair which is (😳) next week!!!! Things are going pretty smoothly (so far) and if the weather cooperates and the Mr. is feeling pretty good, then everything will be ok.
I thought I would try to write a post about each of the 5 wreaths I’m planning on taking with me. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to show you what I make in any detail and I figured it was about time!
First up is a very special one I’ve dubbed “Holiday Glamour.”
The reason I think it’s special is not only because it’s got some pretty fabulous stuff in it but the color palette is scrumptiously poppy. The huge Japan celluloid/plastic reindeer (he’s about 12″ tall) and the gorgeously flashy enormous white and gold package decoration on top are the tip of the iceberg. Â There’s also a lovely double-decker indented blue topper slashing its way across the center for one. Â Other items of note are 2 huge Shiny Brite stencilled balls; 2 Jewelbrite plastic dioramas (the angel and the yellow one on the bottom); a vintage corsage with bells and red ribbon; beautiful indented ornaments; and a host of bells, Shiny Brites, and other lovelies. Â The colors are hot pinks and golds with shots of white, blue, green and silver. Â There are swags of silver beaded garland on the bottom as a final elegant touch.
Here are some photos so you can see all the details. Be sure to click on them to see them full size – so much better!
I’ll try to get back tomorrow with the next one so stay tuned!

I hope you’ve gotten your tickets already to the Fair. Â Even better is an Early Bird ticket that gets you in an hour-and-a-half before everybody else does! Â That means you get first dibs on everything! Â You can go here to get yours (you can get regular tickets here, too!)
I will be in my usual spot, Booth 34-36 on D-Loop, Dogwood Path. It’s just above where Azalea Circle (A Loop) meets Dogwood at D-Leg (and between D22 and D50 as seen on the map below).
