Look at this! Just bought it at Lakeland. It was £12.99 and it feels pretty well made, although check for dried glue and stray stuffing if you are buying one, because there were a few slightly dodgy ones on the shelf.

These wreaths will either :

a) fly off the shelves and I will be at the forefront of this season's hottest home decor trend!!!!! Yesssss!;
or
b) hang around like a fart in a spacesuit until marked down to £3 with still three weeks to go to the Big Day.

Hmm, judging by the success with which I've previously spotted hot new trends, I'm betting b). But I saw it and I liked it so I bought it. I try to buy only one new decoration each year, so I don't feel too bad.

Anyway, I'm making the rest of my Christmas decorations this year, so there! I got the Cosmo Cricket Christmas chipboard shapes and matching die cuts in a sale earlier in the year and I'm going to stick them together. Add a bit of glitter, add a bit of paint, punch a ruddy big hole through them and bish! bash! bosh!, instant heirlooms.

Ok, I love it, added it to my computer Christmas inspiration file...might have to try and make something similar. Can't wait to get started on Shimelle's journal class again this year. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
