This emerald green wreath was a challenge, but I was up for the task. The last picture is last night's project. When I hung up the wreath this morning, I felt the berries were too subtle and got lost in the green. I decided to exchange them for larger berries, and what a difference it made.

Today we explored our creative side with Boba straws. I painted them with a mock birch tree design and attached them around a tin can.
