I think things turn out often how they are meant to be , if I had been able to find the tinsel wreath I have been looking for that I thought I needed I would have never bought this white wreath of mums and feathers ,after a lot of doubting I knew I could make more of it , but I wanted to keep it simple , I hot glued on flocked pine cones from Homesense , the wreath is from Homesense also , then I simply sewed up a sash out of linen I had left over , so subtle and charming .... I wanted to steer clear of an typical greens in the house . Happy!
