I went steam-y again... been that kinda day. :O)
I made a wreath out of Old Canning Rings... saw the idea HERE.
I've been saving any damages rings for this... took awhile I tell ya! But worth it.
The ring is held together with counter-edging, you can see it through in the overview shot.
First picture was taken inside then my 'herd' of 4 boys came parading in from school so I locked myself in the backyard to take the rest. *ahh...peace*
