Look around your home for something to share; dig through those boxes in your closet if you have to! Share photos and the story that goes with your special item.
Today, I am sharing a winter wreath that I made last week.
I got a twig wreath from Hobby Lobby.
Hot glued pinecones all around the inner edge.
And added a satin ribbon bow.
Thank you for taking a look at my quick and easy winter wreath! I am determined to get my Christmas decorations down and give my house a good deep clean this weekend...wish me luck! :0)

This is a lovely wreath Kelli, thank you for sharing. I'm currently pondering how to put together my Easter wreath ~ I'm not quite sure how to go about it yet, so I will wait for inspiration to strike!

Good Luck this weekend--I will be cleaning right along with you!!

LOVE your wreath, Kelli!! Beautiful!
Very winterish. Great idea. Good luck with the cleaning. Mimi
The colors in your new wreath match the color of your door beautifully! The pine cones and satin ribbon are so pretty together.
Good luck this weekend! My decorations are down and I will be cleaning also:)
I'm looking forward to lighting a fire in the fireplace and snuggling up with some hot chocolate when I'm done.
No surprise- another big snow expected Friday:) Then -40 wind chills by Tuesday. Yikes!

What a wonderful idea and result !!
This gives me an idea how to decorate a basket which is still full from automn decoration !
Beautiful wreath Kelli.. I hate to admit this but I haven't taken down my Christmas deco either. It's #1 on my weekend to-do list.
*sigh*
Have a great one..

This looks professionally done, Kelli! Very pretty, and a sweet homey touch! I love that you used brown for the ribbon. Making wreaths is one of my favorite things to do. I'll be featuring some step by step wreath making in future posts.

I've never seen anyone try to interpret winter into a wreath--good job! My Christmas decorations are packed away. December 31, so we have to think birthday party. That motivates us.

Love Kerri

Kelli, Your wreath is very pretty. You come up with really nice ideas. I like the way the ribbon's color coordinates. Lovely. Kathi
What c great January wreath. I am trying to think of how to decorate for January and get the Christmas things put away. Not much time as I am working a few weeks at as a tax preparer in addition to my day job. (My husband is on disability) But I really appreciate you sharing this.
Kelli,
What a lovely wreath! Great idea.
What a great wreath! Thanks for sharing it with us.
My mom would really like your wreath. It is so pretty.
Hi Kelli, I love your pinecone wreath... very nice!!! I am sharing the results of my organizing projects...Thanks for hosting this meme...have a good week-end. Baba
What a pretty wreath. It looks great on the door!
Love the wreath. I did all my post Christmas Cleanup last week and am so excited to get started for Valentines Day.
Your wreath is lovely - I am keeping my Christmas one up a little longer because I couldn't bear the place looking so bare after all the decorations came down - but your one is pretty enough to do all year round! A beautiful welcome for your door!

gasp! I ADORE this wreath! Gorgeous!
I love the wreath Kelli! I have so many pine cones and that would be a good thing to make with them. Have even been wondering about how to go about it. Thanks for posting! And cleaning....
Hi Kelli! I love the wreath. Sure wish we had a Hobby Lobby here in the NW.
Good luck with your chores this week-end. YOU CAN DO IT!!! :-)
Love, Debbi
The wreath is so pretty! I have a full pine cone wreath..and I love it but it is so heavy (literally and to look at)...I love yours set on the twig wreath! Happy Friday!
Morning Kelli...your wreath is wonderful....I'm adding it to my idea book...you create the neatest things. Hugs, Linda
It's beautiful! I would love to make something like this and am saving this idea for another time! Thanks for sharing.
Its beautiful, I love it! I will have to look for some supplies to make that one!
hugs~
Kelly
I love the wreath! I know what you mean about cleaning! We just finished removing (tossing) all our Christmas things! There's dust everywhere! So I spent hours yesterday trying to clean so we can breathe fresh air again! :-)
What a great wreath Kelli. Thanks for hosting.
I love that wreath! It's gorgeous!
Beautiful Kelli! I'm not sure what kind of wreath to put up now. It's supposed to be winter here in Georgia but it feels like spring and things are starting to bloom!
Manuela
What a beautiful wreath Kelli! This would be wonderful for Autumn as well including some acorns :)
Thanks for your blog, you always encourage and inspire me :)
Well this was quite a challenge for me. I left a comment last night but will now add that your photography is outstanding!
Roberta Anne
Wow, that wreath is absolutely beautiful.
I simply love your blog and thank you for hosting this lovely event! Rita
Beautiful wreath... I was trying to think of something for the back door and I think something like this would be perfect!
What a perfect winter wreath for Texas!! Especially the bow.
Beautiful wreath! The pinecones give it such a special look but I think I like the ribbon best! :)
Kelli,
Love the wreath! You did a fantastic job. I think it makes things more special when you make them from your heart with things you have right at home!
Very creative and simply lovely. Thanks for sharing! :o)
Beautiful wreath. You are such a talented photographer. All your picures are so lovely!
Your wreath is stunning - totally gorgeous
I also shared a handmade project today
I enjoyed seeing your winter wreath. It would be great to have one to replace the Christmas wreath for the front door.
I love your winter wreath, I now need to pine cone hunting! lol I still have a lot of acorns in a basket, everytime, I walk buy the basket, I think of all your acorns.
So beautiful and simple. I love it!
Your wreath is gorgeous Kelli! It has such a warm and welcoming glow...so pretty. :-) You did a beautiful job making it.
Hi Kelli
Your wreath is beautiful. I love things made from natural materials. It looks great on your door.
Have a lovely weekend.
Lindsay
Lovely!
I know what you mean about the decorations--I managed to get them taken care of and now I'm trying to add some "January touches" to the cabin. I'm being inspired by you! Hope all goes well with your cleaning and you get it all done!
Blessings to you!
Claudia O.
Kelli I love this wreath.always a puzzle what to put on the door after the Christmas wreath comes down! You've solved that problem for me!
Thank you for sharing.hugs NG
That's so pretty, Kelli - especially with that brown satin bow! :)
Beautiful Wreath, You did a wonderful job Kelli
Simple and very pretty Kelli, looks nice on your door!
I hope to finish up the Christmas put away this weekend too. Only have the family room left to do.
Got to get ready for my on line Market Sale too.
Have a good weekend!
So beautiful and elegant.

Kelli your crafting talent continues to amaze me. This is so beautiful!
Gorgeous wreath, Kelli! Your creativity never ceases to amaze me!
You inspire me!!! Blessings! Lilly
This is a beautiful wreath! The satin ribbon really softens it.
your wreath looks great! sounds like it was pretty easy to do too which is always a plus in my book! things were crazy here today so i didn't get a chance to participate but i hope to be back on fridays with you next week!
Kelli,
I love the wreath! I am a big fan of wreaths; however, I've never made one of my own. I actually have a wreath like the one you've made, but without the pinecones and ribbon. I might have to be a copycat! :)
That looks lovely - what a great idea to glue the pinecones on!!!!!
Oh Kellie I love this! I am going to Hobby Lobby tomorrow for the first time...I am so excited. Since I live in such a small town I don't have access to places like that. I might have to pick a wreath up like this and try it. Lexi even says that is a pretty wreath to and wants one on her door. She is only 4 so guess she is getting into decor now. lol
Kelli,
How lovely that wreath is! I love the wonderful bow; the color is perfect! You are very inspiring.
And, no, you are not the only one with decor still up. Most of mine is down but will finish the rest in the next day or so. Have a blessed weekend. :)
Is imitation really the sincerest form of flattery? Because I want one just like it! So cute.
Kelly, Thanks for hosting. This is fun and it looks like lots of others enjoy it too. I love your wreath. It looks so pretty on your door! Happy cleaning. I just finished tonight and it does feel good!
Heather
That's lovely, Kelli.
I just found some floral stems I had been looking at last year, but thought were too expensive, on sale half price at Hobby Lobby this week -- I was so delighted! I didn't get them put together like I wanted to in a door decoration for today's S&T, but I wondered if they were too springy. I haven't decided whether to go ahead with them now as is to "think spring," or whether to go with something more wintry.
I just love these golden brown colors! :)
What a wonderful wreath! I am so glad that Zaroga told me about you site! I have a great excuse Not to clean, LOL, got to work on the church scrapbook! I think I will go clean the bathroom in a little while though!
Such a beautiful wreath!! I love the colours...I always have tons of pinecones that fall off our trees in the backyard and now I know what to do with some of them:-) Hope you're having a wonderful weekend my friend...even if it is taking down Christmas decorations. lol xoxo
Your winter pinecone wreath is beautiful! It turned out great. You are very talented.
I've finally posted so you can come by when you get a chance.
Absolutely stunning Kelli. I managed to get my Christmas decorations down last weekend, and now it is time to figure out some Valentines decorations.
God bless.
The wreath is sweet. I wanted you to know that I found some incredible acorns at a local retailer and immediately thought of you. They wouldn't have survived the shipping process (or prices) or else I would have snapped them up to send to you.
Hope you were able to get the much needed deep clean done.
I love your wreath! It really looks nice on your door! I am still trying to get my Christmas things down as well. Maybe this next week...ugh...lol
What a gorgeous wreath. One of the few craft projects I can actually manage! And such an easy way to mark the changing of the seasons and special holidays.
Ali @ A Cosy Life
Beautiful! I love that I can look at your things and think, "I can do that!"
I would love to join Show and Tell Friday, but am a bit confused about the Mr. Linky part. I belong to Friday Flea Market and have Mr. Linky there, so would I add another Mr. Linky for this?
I love your blog, please let me know how to do this. Thanks and please visit my blog!
Mimi
Kelli!!
This wreath is GORGEOUS!!!! I just may have to try my hand at this!! So very pretty indeed!!
His,
Mrs. U
I just stole your idea!!! Thank you...it looks great!
