Little Christmas Wreath Ornament 
Free Crochet Pattern By
Kara Gunza By Petals To Picots

Find the Crochet Pattern at this Link;

This Sweet little Wreath Crochet Pattern
 is super easy 
to stitch up, But also very quick!
I used Red Heart Shimmer Yarn - Shamrock
for a hint of Sparkle in a
 bright Christmas Green.
I added a few small fun buttons on mine.
I purchased these tiny buttons
 in the scrap booking
 department at Hobby Lobby.
This yarn is very soft and holds it's shape.

You can Stitch up several of these
 in short amount of time.
I made 7 in an hour!
 They make  great gift tags and pins.
You can embellish any thing, like a
Hat, Stocking, scarf or bag.
Stitch up a bunch and make a Garland.
I Hope you are enjoying the 
Christmas in July Event.

Christmas Decor at Cottontail Lane

Well, we are at the new house and
 I decided to take a break 
and hang up the Christmas Wreath
that I made,
 or should I say, put together,
 2  Christmas' ago. 

It was a fun memory.
It was our first Christmas 
here in Colorado, 
My Daughter in law, her Friend and
 I went to Hobby Lobby 
and picked out fun things
 to decorate our wreaths with.

Then we went over to my house, 
pulled out the glue guns
 and got Started.

Here is how mine looked.
Bright colors, Chihuahuas and 
little "yarn balls" on the ribbon.
I Loved it!
Well, sadly to say it did not 
survive the move to Cottontail.
One of my porcelain Chihuahuas broke.

So I headed to Hobby Lobby 
to find one to replace it but,
Couldn't find another one.
I decided to get this cute set of "knit" mittens,
in bright colors to add to the wreath. 
I think it looks great.
Come on in our new Home.
The wreath on the Door, I also made,
But in more traditional colors.
Puppy Stockings are hung, 
Wreath's are hung, 
and the poinsettias are out.

OH NO!
 Is that Nacho,
Christmas Chihuahua Elf?
Wonder what mischief
he will get into?

How To Make A Yarn Ball Wreath

How To Make A Yarn Ball
 Christmas Wreath
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

Supplies:
14 inch Styrofoam Ring
Assort. Sizes of Styrofoam Balls
Assort. yarns
( I chose all Christmas Sparkle yarns)
Hot Glue Gun
Hot Glue sticks


Step 1: Wind yarn of your choice around the Styrofoam ring.
Put little dabs of hot glue to hold the yarn, But,
please note: The Hot glue will melt the Styrofoam.
so tiny little dabs of glue is all you need.

Step 2: Wrap different size balls with different color yarns,
again only using little dabs of hot glue.

Step 3: Arrange your yarn covered balls
onto your yarn wrapped ring.
This is were I used a lot of hot glue
 to hold them in place.

Last Step: Braid some of the coordinating yarn
and make a ribbon.
And also make a yarn hanger by looping the
 matching yarn over the top of the Wreath.
All Done.
I Love it!
This project took me about an hour to make.
The longest part was wrapping the yarn on the ring.


Enjoy!

Chihuahua Themed Christmas Wreath

My Daughter in law and her friend 
asked if I would like to make new Christmas 
wreaths with them. So we went to  Hobby Lobby, picked out a wreath and all the bobbles 
and ribbons to make them.
I Bought 3 ceramic Chihuahuas and bright
 colorful decorations and ribbon.

A Chihuahua Themed Christmas Wreath!
To make the Wreath, 
I purchased an wreath that was empty.
Then I used a lot of Hot Glue.
 I placed everything were I wanted it and just
 glued it in place.  Even the ribbon is glued on.
It is really easy, Just choose a them and let your imagination take over.
And a Lot of Hot Glue!

Here are the three wreathes we designed.
1. Ice Cream Themed
2. Chihuahua Themed
3. Cupcake Themed

It was so much fun.
