I was paging through one of my mom's Good Housekeeping magazines (she's been a faithful subscriber since my childhood in the 80s) and I found some wonderful ideas for handmade wreaths, some of which are made from recycled or natural items. These are a far cry from the plastic grocery bag wreaths that I remember in my grandparents' house when I was a kid. I just had to share these, even if it may be a little late for decking your doors.Mens' Tie Wreath
An Elegant Paper Wreath from Martha Stewart
Gift Box Wreath (also from Martha)
And one of my favorites is this one made from traffic signs by Boris Bally. You can buy it at eco-artware.com if you're so inclined.
Go on and deck those halls!
I like the cookie cutter and cork wreaths! Storing it in my noggin for next year...
