Our New Homemade Advent Wreath
Our new wreath
After looking high and low for a new Advent wreath (see old char-burned Advent wreath here), I finally decided to make one. Couldn’t believe that Target and Walmart didn’t carry a single Advent wreath. They carry just about every other “Christmas” decoration, but last time I checked Christmas is the coming of Jesus, not the coming of… well, you know who.
I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday and bought a floral stem and pink and purple candles, hoping that sticking to the traditional colors will keep me less, uh, fire prone. Bubba is loving our Advent calendar, especially the paper chain. He’s excited to celebrate with his Papa and Nana who are flying in today. Speaking of, I’ve got some cleaning to do before the in-law invasion. Merry Christmas to you. Only a few more days to go!
