after the success in making a wreath for the door,i decided i would try and do one for dads grave this year,mainly because they are so expensive,been rather an expensive month. so,got a thick piece of wire,taped it into a loop,wired xmas tree branch cuttings round,and then,holly. now,ive got some lovely holly,lot of berries for the first time,it seeded itself,i never planted it,and has grown into a nice shaped tree. but oh boy,is it sharp. very prickly.anyway,i got my hands pricked to bits,but finished it,and decided to put in my car,ready to take up churchyard monday. as i walked round,a neibour was going past with 2 wreaths in his hand,on his way to churchyard. so we had a compare. lol he had paid £6 each,lot smaller 3 manky cheap plastic flowers.( mine are material and i put 6 on )very thin,no berries on holly,and was very complimentary about my efforts. rather pleased lol
had nice lunch,mum still in lot of pain,but toe looks much better, really hope she soon fully recovered. take care all
