I've had the same winter wreath hanging on our front door since we moved here nearly 2 years ago.

I love the wreath...

it's pine with pine cones and a burlap bow...

but it has snow on the pine boughs (though it's very subtle).

I wasn't overly worried about it last spring and summer, since no one was coming to visit,

but in hopes that this year will be different,

I made a new wreath.

I even made the bow -

though you could probably tell without me saying it -

and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out since I've always thought they were hard to make.

I tried a new method via YouTube and it was much, much easier.

I'll probably try to tweak this one a bit once I stop feeling so proud of myself.  :)
