Check out this holiday wreath I made. You have to admit, it’s at least good for a chuckle.
I have seen wreaths made out of hoses before, I’m not claiming to have made it up, but they always look a little thin to me. Like they only used 8 feet or something? I used 25′ of hose dressed in Dirt Couture’s Hose Clothes. Wrapping the hose tightly, or what I thought was tightly at the time, I simply zip tied it in 4 places to hold it in place.
Then I sat and made these pompons for an entire Sunday afternoon. I think it could use WAY more pompons, but I couldn’t teach the dog how to make them.
If I had a team of interns to help me, I would have made the wreath a little smaller and tighter… and made more pompons. And certainly used different gloves- because I spray painted these pink and the paint isn’t really cooperating.
But overall, I like it- probably because anything leopard print totally rocks.
Tell me what you think!
Because what says "Christmas" more than a leopard and pink combo?
What a great conversational piece. I love it. And the colors work well together.
Dang….I should of thought of that. Cute!
I’m glad you like it!
Hm. Yes, I want that hose. But instead of embellishing with pink pom-poms and gloves, I’d keep it plain and tuck a little stuffed mouse in the open end.
I want to see photos if you do it!
I never learned how to emoticon, so I can “back atcha!”
Now that is a hose worthy of gifting! It would be so wonderful to leave it as a gift on a friends doorstep or hose rack/reel with a note as a surprise. I think its good for any time of year giving! Totally cute!
It really isn’t Christmas specific, for sure. However, it’s so nice to have something a little out of the ordinary this time of year!
The gloves pull it all together. Leopard skin with pink accents. What’s not to love?
XOXO! You’re too kind!
