Holiday Inspiration

So I have been in total Holiday gear after getting back from Albuquerque on Monday night. Everywhere you looked, there were festive luminaries lining sidewalks, building parapets, driveways, etc. And this Grinch finally got in the spirit, reminiscing with Mr. CBF my Dad's luminaries stories of putting them up on our house.

I have been contemplating a new wreath for our front door for a while. I wanted something that incorporated Christmas, Chanukkah, Winter, Snow, Yarn, and Crochet. When I got back and finally logged back on yesterday, I saw my brilliant friend, Qiana, (I know she has the coolest name!) posted new holiday cards on her etsy shop. I flipped for them (as well as all her new paper and fabric designs). Her wreath is just what I was envisioning. I am seeing balls and donut shapes with yarn wrapped around them plus crochet snowflakes sprinkled in between. I'll let you know if my idea works out, and if I find time to do it before our big Christukkah party on Saturday night.

Till then, totally check out Q. Her etsy stuff and blog are awesome sources of inspiration!

Strangely, my Starbucks has the coolest yarn ball wreaths! Lots of green balls with little red ones like berries I guess.
