August Rudolph Day, A Wreath Re-Do!!

Happy Rudolph Day!!!

Yes, it is the 25th of the month so it is Rudolph Day!!

My Christmas post for this August Rudolph's Day is a Wreath Re- Do!!

This is the wreath that I made to hang on the upstairs Bathroom Door several years ago......

It matches nicely with the Tree that I have in the Bathroom for Christmas.......

Yes, I have a Tree in my Bathroom for Christmas!!

I also have one in the downstairs Powder Room that stays up for Christmas and for the rest of the Winter!!

Back to the wreath which I thought was a bit sparse and since I have a LOT of un-decorated wreaths that I bought while selling Crafts at Craft Fairs ( I am taking a break from that for about 2 years) , I thought that I would take another wreath of the same size and wire it to this existing wreath........

What a difference in just the fullness of the wreath it made!!

I had some left over ornaments that I did not have room for on the small Tree in the Bathroom so I added them too!

I mainly added them around the second wreath and then a few were added to the old wreath........

The Santa Head stayed where it was on the old wreath......

And I just added a bow made out of glitzy ribbon!!

I think it looks much better, don't you?

When the hallway is dark and there isn't much light, the wreath sort of sparkles......

It will match nicely with the Tree......

And the rest of the Bathroom......

What a difference........

From this........

To this..........

So if you want to add a bit of fullness to a smaller wreath, just add a second wreath to it!!

Happy Rudolph's Day!!

I hope you will come back next month to see what I post for Rudolph's Day!!

Remember it will be September 25th!!

Debbie

Victorian Homes Holiday Edition 1994, Happy Rudolph Day!!!

Happy Rudolph Day!!

It is July 25th and that means 5 more months to Christmas!!!

This year, I will be part time and I have bowed out of all volunteer commitments that I had in the past so I will be free to decorate to my heart's content!!

I am so looking forward to it!!

I plan to start posting here more often as we get closer to this year's Christmas Season........

Today, I will be featuring one of the many magazines that I collect........

It is an oldie for sure...The Holiday Edition of Victorian Homes from 1994!!!

There are a lot of beautiful photos in it so I will let the pictures do the talking!!

Enjoy!!

I love an Old Fashioned Christmas and being a Victorian at Heart, I love this style of Christmas Decorating!!

I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do!

I keep several Trees up year round and decorate them for every Holiday and Season.......
