Scrap Fabric wreath

First I got Amelia and Tootsie to help me out, then I started cutting strips of this gold fabric and tying the strips together at the ends. Then I wrapped the strips around the wreath form. Then after it was covered in the gold fabric I tied and knotted some extra ribbon in a big clump on one side. And that's all, it was easy and it's pretty cute.

hydrangeas the size of my head, love 'em


ps, Amelia behaved, slept and ate wonderfully for my parents. I was so thankful! and i missed her tons but happy to report I was able to enjoy myself. She punished me a bit yesterday for being gone by being tad more grumpy than usual, but hopefully we will find our groove again today. I'm glad she had an opportunity to be around different faces all weekend I think it was good for her.
