Candy Cane Mesh Wreath

I hope you are all having a wonderful week!

The craziness has started around here...lol. I have been decorating houses the past two days and have to be at another one this morning...so I only have 15 minutes to do this post! Whew! I have been taking pics so I will have alot to show you soon. I am flying by the seat of my pants right now so please hang with me! =0


In the mean time, I wanted to show you this candy cane mesh wreath I made. So far the tutorial on the snowman mesh wreath has been my most popular post of all time! Wow! I'm glad you like it. Remember, if you make one please send me a pic and I will post it on my blog. It doesn't have to be just like it, any Christmas theme is fine.


I hope this wreath gives you another idea! I will have more to show you soon...



Remember my Share Your Creations Party tomorrow! I will have the linky tool up tonight...it might be late, I'm not sure when I'll be home. I hope you will join in the fun!

Gotta go decorate....


Have a great day!
