June Wreath
My June ‘2014 Wreath of the Month’ is my most favorite wreath that I’ve ever made.
*I made the wreath base out of empty water bottles.
*I sculpted the critters, trees, lily-pads,
boat & fisherman out of polymer clay.
*I made a hook out of wire and sculpted a little worm for it.
I used fishing line and hung the worm on the hook
from the fishing pole that I made out of a toothpick.
I used some shells which my late Grandma in-law gave to me.
I added a bit of salvaged paper raffia for sea-weed.
I had the best time creating, sculpting and decorating this wreath.
It’s a fun wreath and has gotten many compliments.
The men and boys in my family especially like it.
Fishing has always been a big part of my family.
A fishing trip would be an enjoyable way to celebrate Father’s day.
I hope all the Dad’s & caretakers of our children
have a pleasant month of good times & fun
whatever your hobby or favorite sport.

Here’s a photo of the way I made the wreath base out of empty plastic water bottles.
I used shipping tape to hold them together

Memorial Day Wreath
I made this wreath in honor of our Military for Memorial Day.
It’s a small but sincere effort on my part to show my appreciation to the troops past & present and their families for all they’ve given and still give for us. Their sacrifices are great.
Using polymer clay, I sculpted one rose for each month of the year and the pearl centers are for the tears shed for the troops continual sacrifices 12 months a year.
The wreath base is made from newspapers and covered in camouflage fabric. I covered the base with blocks made on a cardboard loom using camouflage yarn.
Here’s wishing you all an awesome week.
