Holiday Wreaths


Wreaths are appearing everywhere, even on cars and fire trucks.  Intrigued by this phenomena, I drove around the neighborhood yesterday, trying to find unique wreaths like the one I posted here in Tangletown. No luck.  Those on the outside of homes, all looked like the one in this photo, varying only in size: green boughs with an attached red ribbon.  Perhaps wreaths inside homes are more creative and different.  I shall continue my search; 'til the season is over.

  1. I like this....A wreath where you wouldn't expect one. I have seen cars here with reindeer antlers.

  4. Wreaths with red go good in Minnesota in the winter wherever they are found!

  10. I like it! I usually see just two variables in wreaths. Real vs plastic, and bright red bow vs burgundy. Great project!

  11. Hi Kate, So far I think you are the only one who noticed that "photoshop" tag. Yes, I took two pictures, the nice photo of the hawk but there was nothing else in the picture but sky so I put the bird into the canyon picture that I took earlier. It would be almost impossible to get that picture any other way. I love playing with photoshop. I always put that tag on so if viewers are as observant as you, they know it's a manipulated picture.

  14. Having a wreath on this fire engine is pretty good, even though it is a simple wreath.
