| ok, I think it was Kirk who posted the pot wreathe that someone had made him. SO, I went out and made me one! Since I took this picture I added a few more small pots to it. What do you think?
Love, Jules |

| Thank you all for your wonderful comments. Ok, so it was REAL easy. I bought the pots and used an old grapevine like wreath that I had ouside on the fence. I found some old wire that was my Grandpas. Just cut lenths of wire for each pot and wired them through the hole in the pot and around the wreath. Sometimes you have to play around with them to get them the way you want. I twist tiesd the two end wires together on the back and just rolled and tucked the remaining wire behind the wreath. That's all! IT just made me feel good to finally do one! I have been wanting to all I needed was the pots. Love, Jules |

| You did a wonderful job! Did it take a lot of patience? I sadly lack in that dept. at times, LOL. I'd probably break a few pots before a wreath was done. hugs, Karen |
|
| Yes, I received my wonderful wreath from Cindee as my 2007 Secret Santa gift! WE LOVE IT! Cindee is just so dog-gone talented and inspirational! Jules, I love your wreath! WAY TO GO! Bear Hugs! Kirk

| Karen, YES, it does take a little patience. I laid some newspaper on my dining room table and would eye where one should go. I'd lay it (with wire in place) in the spot and gently hold it there while I turned it over or on it's side to twist the wire snug. I did the larger pots first and so on. It didn't take long at all--maybe 30-40 minutes. It's REALLY simple. Love, Jules |

| OHHHH, now I must venture out to my garden shed thru the snow! I have a wreath...but don't know if I have enough "little pots." Admired Cindee's SS gift to Kirk...and now you've gone and done it, nmgirl, and it looks so inviting on your fence! Great project, girls! Jeanne S. BRRRRRR! My garden shed... |
|
| Jules, it looks great, I thought it would take lot longer than that. Cindee's looks good too, she must have really bubble wrapped it up well!! I thought those pots would be very brittle but held up through it's travels!! Like your lanterns Jules & the blue plate/plaque too!! Jan |
|
| OH Jeanne what a BEAUTIFUL pic....It's breath taking... |
|
| I love your wreath! Your placements of pots from big to small is very well done. Vickie |
