I think these miniature bottle brush type wreathes are so charming. They remind me of the vintage ornaments my grandmother would have had. This little project is part of my Countdown to Christmas project in my 12 Days of Christmas Workshop. Lots of creative fun has been going on in there. We will be creating Monsieur Hiver this week. Oh how I love this project.

So if you have a little tin or box and want to put a sentiment inside as a little surprise to who ever opens it, this is super easy and cute... give it a try. And the best part is these are cheap and add such simple charm to any project.

My newest addiction... felt. I created this card using my friend Wendy's Studio 490 Art of Making it Merry stamp set. I just inked the stamps, stamped the image onto some cream felt, then used that as my embroidery pattern for the flourishes. Then I stamped the flower image three times onto some red felt, cut them out, layered them, put some french knots in the center and accented the edges using Platinum Stickles. I think this came out pretty cute. Adding the Platinum Stickles gives it the cheesy vintage look which I love so much right now too.
