White Wreath for Vintage Ladder
White Wreath for Vintage Ladder
Normally, when the holidays come, I see so many posts showing lovely pom pom wreaths. I always want to make one, but it seems that the holidays come and go and I don't get one made. So, I decided to make one early. (It is Christmas in July after all, right)
I have a vintage ladder in the spare bedroom and thought a wreath would look nice on it. So I decided to make a white one. Partly because it would go with the quilts on the ladder and partly because I had white yarn.
Although I liked it, the all white wreath seemed blah! Maybe I should have made it more random or used another color. How could I fix this? I had no other pom pom yarn that would work so I looked in my finer yarn basket. I use these ones for crocheting doilies. I picked out a beige one and then mixed the two yarns together to make new pom poms.
The post White Wreath for Vintage Ladder first appeared on Eclectic Red Barn.

Happy Sunday dear friends. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Ours was good even if it was quiet hot. Looks like we might get some relief this week. That would be great. We worked on some yard projects, pulled weeds and pruned some hedges. After that it was pool time.
How was your weekend? Any new projects on the horizon? I am working on one and hope to have it done this week. I can't wait to share it with you.
My favorite part of these parties is reading your comments. I feel like I get to know you and that we are almost like "texting" back and forth. You share your stories with me and I share mine - just like friends. So keep them coming.

Happy Sunday! I hope you are having a great weekend. Ours has been hot but I see that it has been hot up north as well. It meant a lot of pool time. I am still sewing. I have three pillows done with two more to go. I then have to make some drapes
and that project will be done.
Do you have a project that you are working on? Any sewing projects? I did finish another DIY project but I need to get the pictures done and get the post ready. Too busy sewing. lol!

Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things!
Happy Thursday! I hope you woke to a glorious day. I certainly did. I was busy yesterday sewing. I am working on a "comforter/spread" for a day bed. The dogs were playing outside, actually barking outside. Dachshunds were born to hunt and mine live up to that. They love to hunt geckos and when they see one they go crazy and start barking and keep barking. They can go on hours an hour. Sometimes, I have to bring them in(usually by offering a treat) just so they can relax, especially in this heat.
Do you have any dog stories?

Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop
Welcome to Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop!
Hello dear friends. I hope you are all doing well. All is good in my world. They had to take our motor home into the shop today. /We had something that decided to chew on some of our electrical wires so we lost lights, air conditioning and we don't know what else. We assume mice, but not sure it geckos chew on wires or not. We had lots of stuff to keep them out but since we could not go anywhere lately, I guess they had a field day. So for now, it is in the shop.
Hubby also left today for Vermont to help our son build a deck and a lean too for the barn. He is driving and will take several days to get there. Stopping at his brothers in Georgia and then a day or two at our place in the mountains in West Virginia. It will just be me and the dogs.
