Christmas Oranges

For those of you who wondered….

No, I did not repaint my orange door for Christmas!

Instead, I decided to EMBRACE THE ORANGE!

I purchased an evergreen wreath at a Christmas tree yard last night.  I removed the two sprigs of fake berries, two silver-painted cedar branches, and the pathetic red bow.

Armed with pinecones, a bag of oranges from Hobby Lobby ($3.60 after coupon), twigs, spray adhesive, glitter, and a glue gun, I embellished the wreath to make my orange door a little more Christmas-y!

I have to admit, I wasn’t sure I was going to like it until I got the glitter on.  Glitter makes everything better, though, I’m sure!

Today it is about 36 degrees with 60-100 mph winds (no kidding).  Making a wreath was WAY more appealing than repainting the door!
