I made this mid-month wreath inspired by the summer flowers in bloom.
I made these flowers last March when I was planning my Spring Wreath. I held on to them for later in the year to use on a wreath when the lilies are in bloom.
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 why I’m making a ‘Wreath of the Month’ for every month of 2014.
