Make Your Own Wreath From Your Christmas Tree Clippings!

Hi, Friends! I just had to share this with you right away, as it occurred to me that you are all probably doing some of the same things as me right now, in preparation for Christmas. Please forgive me, these photos aren't up to my usual standard, but I was anxious to let you know how to do this-this weekend if you were wanting to.  Have you ever made your own wreath? It's so easy, that I really just couldn't wait to share it with you!
