Christmas Wreath From a Big O

9 years ago

I haven't been here for a long time except to lurk, but finally got into my account. Passwords can be a pain, lol.
Found some big letters that had been removed from a building at a recycle center, got them for a very reasonable price and made a Christmas wreath out of the O. DH wired it up, but the lights blew up. Guess they were low voltage. We added a string of red Christmas lights inside and added lights around it. It's about 30 inches tall.

The back yard fence has been done for quite awhile, unlike most projects here. I have a fun shed that is just a few hours away from being finished, but am always sidetracked by other things. Anxious to post it when finished. After the first of the year I'll try to post more often. There are loads of blue bottles here to display. Need to get moving faster and finish things. Linda
