DIY Wreaths

     Wreaths are a great way to add warmth and personality to your home, whether placed on your front door, porch, or inside of your house.  I’ve found that I particularly enjoy crafting with foam wreaths.  They are relatively small and don’t require too much material and don’t overwhelm the space you decide to place it… Continue reading DIY Wreaths
