Wreaths - Part 2

Ok..I think I've reached the end of my wreath making madness...maybe.

Purple and Gold with white lights. No name yet. On a wire bast. Purple shiny, and glittered balls. Purple "disco" balls tucked in here and there.  Wire frame.  14".





"Baubles" Teal, purple, frosted silver and shiny silver balls.  Silver bead trim.  About 12" wide. Foam core base.  Would also look very nice on a table  Everything is glued and pinned. 

  


"Silent Night" White fur, blue glitter Styrofoam balls. Glittered silver balls.  The deer is a bit more green than the picture, but it works really well with glitter balls.  They are those "fill" type of things found in the floral section.   About 18" wide.  The deer is wired at a few places and has a few dabs of hot glue.  Foam core.

I'm pretty proud of this one.....even though I think the Silver Glitter "moon" looks like the Death Star.  haha!! :)


Close up of the glitter balls. The bottom layer were pinned and glued in.  The top layers were just glued in.  Lots and lots of pins and glue.  


Enjoy!

Wreaths

Every year Martini's Above Fourth holds their annual Wreath Auction for the Eddie Conlin Youth Fund.  It's a great night.  Last year the wreaths I made raised over $700!!

So for this year, I've made the following wreaths.


This is "Festive"  Teal-ish silk, silver trim, blue glitter styrofoam balls, and pearl headed pins. 





 This doesn't have a name  - yet.  Black fur, gold tinsel and four kinds of gold balls.  Can be hung with the gold on top, on the side or bottom.  Now I have black furry bits floating around my house - haha!


 "Pink for Everyone."  The base was premade with pink tinsel.  I added silver garland, white lights, pink ribbon puffs, about 3 different kind of pink balls, and a big silverly iridescent flower. 




 "Sparkle!"  All silver. Tinsel, shiny and glitter silver ornaments, two size of silver 'disco ball' ornaments and white twinkle lights.  This shines in the light...almost too much :) I really like this one - might make myself one.



I think I have enough supplies for 2 or 3 more. 

Ta!
