Wreaths

I loved making wreaths since childhood and after a long time I got down to making not 1 but 2 of them at the same time.
I have used the plastic seal of the 20 litre Bisleri water bottle to make the wreaths on.
One of the wreaths is on Christmas theme while the other on Fall.
Have a sneak peek and do let me know which one you like more :)

 Behind the scenes....
I wrapped the ring with brown tape for the fall wreath and green one for the other.
 Some tid bits from my discarded pot pouri.
 Assembled them together...
 And here we go...
 The other wreath is on Christmas theme. I made quilled poinsettias and holy leaves for this. The bells are also quilled.

 Happy crafting!

    Both wreaths are beautiful, the quilling must have taken you ages, and to be honest I don't think I could choose between them. Thank you for joining us Craft-Room Challenge, and good luck. Julia xx
