So, to make up for it, here is a photo of the Christmas door wreath I finished this Monday!
It took about two weekends to finish, just because it took me a while on-and-off to finish all those yarn balls. If you're interested, I got the idea and instructions from Life Through the Lens. Mine is not as gorgeous as the blogger's, but I don't think it's a bad effort, either. I may end up bulking it up some more with additional ornaments and yarn balls on the inner circle of the wreath.

I love the wreath! It's beautiful. And your pose does not look bad, but I totally understand. Sometimes I won't even post an outfit even if I think it's really good because I feel like my poses are too contrived.
ReplyDeletegreat wreath! I love it! My daughter will too. You look casual cute - I love that necklace- I need to get mine out.
ReplyDeleteYour wreath is fantastic! I love it!
ReplyDeleteSometimes I have trouble with my pictures too. My kids take my pictures and always catch me with my mouth open or from a bad angle. :) But your picture really does not look too bad. Your necklace is very cute.

Wow I really love that wreath. I'll have to check out those instructions.
ReplyDeleteBTW I still have this window open that's how much I want to make this wreath. How long did it take you to make it (time wise)? I know it took you a few weeks but you didn't work continuously.
