In 2008, my niece attended Carondalet High School as a freshman. Every year, they have a Christmas Tea. My sister has been volunteering at the school and asked if I could make a wreath and a couple of centerpieces to donate to the boutique and silent auction. All three pieces sold...whew! I thought I'd have to buy them to save my pride. Ok, I'm a little slow in posting the pictures but here they are.
For this year's tea, instead of making items to sell, I made a five foot wreath. I have to say, this was the largest project I've ever tackled. I'm loving the color combination of lime green and purple. My sister loves it and I hope my niece and her school does too!
Winston wanted to be in the "Before" picture. I removed the picks that came with the wreath.

You did a great job with the wreath! And, Winston looks quite handsome in the "before" picture. They should all love the wreath.
