Κάποτε υπήρχε ένα στεφάνι που ήταν γυμνό και κρύωνε. Άλλωστε ήταν φτιαγμένο από χαρτόνι. Ήταν Φθινόπωρο γι ‘αυτό έψαξε και βρήκε κάποια κατάλληλη ένδυση. Μια υπέροχη λευκή, μάλλινη λωρίδα υφάσματος.
Επειδή ο καιρός ήταν ψυχρός, ένιωσε ότι χρειαζόταν κάτι περισσότερο για να ζεσταθεί. Έτσι βρέθηκε ένα ύφασμα με γήινα καφέ, πορτοκαλί και πράσινες αποχρώσεις.
Ήταν αρκετά ζεστό, αλλά τώρα το στεφάνι ήθελε κάτι παραπάνω. Ένιωσε ασύμμετρο και ήθελε ισορροπία.
Πρόσθεσε λίγη δαντέλα για ομορφιά και μερικές κορδέλες σε μπεζ και λαδί, τα χρώματα της φύσης.
Κοίτα αυτό το ύφασμα. Ας το προσθέσουμε.
Ω, κάνει ένα όμορφο λουλούδι.
Και υφή με αυτό το άχυρο.
Αλλά περιμένετε!! Ερχεται η παραμονή των άγιων πάντων. Ας προσθέσουμε ένα ποντίκι για να ταρακουνήσει τα πράγματα.
Και ένας σκελετός κρυφοκοιτάζει έξω.
Και το στεφάνι είναι έτοιμο!

I think your wreath is adorable. You have the knack for combining textures and colors. The fabric flowers really made it but my favorite is the mouse. I have to ask, is that a cat toy?
Thanks Debra. It is a toy that my girls picked up at Ikea a few years back. Not a cat toy as it was found in the children’s section.
Lovely anyway!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Hahaha, Mary you’re awesome! It’s a little bit of all, I love how all the pieces of fabric go well together, but are different, and how you divided the sides and styles…And, I’m glad the little wreath is warm now and pretty too!
Yes that wreath is wa rm and cozy for now, but soon it will have to put its Christmas finery on. Thanks for visiting.
Mary, this is an awesome wreath!! I love all the pieces you added, minus the mouse…I hate mice! 😉 It’s very cool though!! Great job!! 🙂
Keri you are so funny. I hate those mice too, but what else can I do I had a skeleton head and it was way to heavy to stay up on the wreath. At least the mouse is light. But not cute!!
I think its perfect Mary, especially with the flower!! I liked the story as well!! :))
Thanks so much Eleana. I try to keep things interesting. Mix them up a bit. So happy you stopped by.
I think it’s adorable! You’ve encompassed a few different themes with one wreath but I don’t think it looks crazy! Your post was quite funny. Great job!
xoKathleen
Thanks Kathleen. It was my intention to be all over the place with this one. I’m glad I could make you laugh. We’ll see how the mouse feels about this.
It has a split personality…Halloween or Fall, depending on it’s mood!
That’s right Marie, a split personality. I was actually thinking of callig it the Bi-polar wreath, but it didn’t sound very poetic.
I loved your post Mary! And that mouse on the wreath is just perfect!
That mouse Zografia is going to haunt me soon. It’s mad that I gave the post a nasty name.
Mary that wreath is so pretty!! I love the colors you used, the floral fabric is lovely, and the rosette is the extra touch.
Thanks Pili. It’s all over the place, but somehow it works. I think I got the idea of the rosette, from a video you had posted. Thanks.
Δεν ξέρω για ποια απ όλες τις γιορτές ταιριάζει. Αυτό που ξέρω είναι πως μου αρέσει με όλα αυτά που κουβαλάει πάνω του. Κάποιος μπορεί να πει πως είναι διαφορετικά και δεν δένουν μεταξύ τους … κι όμως αυτή η διαφορετικότητα είναι που κάνει το σύνολο ξεχωριστό. Μπράβο Μαίρη μου! Ευφάνταστη κατασκευή!!!
Χριστίνα είπαμε σχιζοφρενεια!! Και ειναι και η εποχή που θέλουμε να φορτώσουμε τη διακοσμηση. Θέλουμε υπερβολές όχι μινιμαλισμό. Σε ευχαριστω για τα καλά σου λόγια.
It’s really, really cute!
Thanks so much, so glad you stopped on over.
How fun! I love the fabrics you used. Thanks for sharing at the Inspiration Spotlight party. Pinned & shared.
Thanks so much Theresa, it is always a pleasure to visit parties that appreciate you. And I will continue to visit.
Haha, the name of your wreath had me chuckling! It turned out so fun!
Thanks Audra. Mission accomplished. A little humor with the Halloween candy.
Fun story! Love the nature inspired fabrics and textures. And of course the mouse. Cute. I think he can stick around for Thanksgiving. Thanks for sharing at The Creative Circle.
Yes, Kathy that little rodent seems to be growing on me. I had a skull I wanted to put on the wreath originally but it was made of clay and was way to heavy. But now it seems the little mouse turned out to be the best solution. Thanks for visiting.
Mary, it is adorable!
Dianne, I never thought I would say this, but yes it is growing on me too. Althought I remember when my kids bought this toy home, I originally looked at it with horror. How we change.
So fun, Mary! Thank you for sharing @Vintage Charm!
Thank you Cecilia, it is always a pleasure to have you visit.
Love the little rat on the wreath! I found you at Party Junk! How come you have your blog in Greek as well as English?
Thanks Zefi.. I blog in 2 languages because I have viewers who don’t speak English. I don’t like google translate. It is not natural speach and I believe if someone is going to take the time to visit my blog, then I owe them the courtesy of trying to communicate with them the best I can. It takes longer but we should not forget why we blog.. In my case it makes me happy when I know that people have seen and liked my work. Hopping on over to your blog too. Thanks for visiting.
You are clearly talented Mary! You have a way with putting fabrics,textures and patterns together that just work!
As for this being a schizophrenic wreath, I think I prefer ‘versatile’. 😉
Have a great week!
Thanks Doreen. You are too kind. I don’t know what the mouse would say to that. Have yourself a wonderful November.
This is so cute. What a great job. Thanks for sharing at the #HomeMattersParty
Thanks so much Vickie. Now that Halloween is over the mouse will have to go into hiding.
Well, whatever it is, it’s perfect!! 🙂
Thanks so much Kim. It can be whatever you want it to be. 🙂
You did a great job combining so many different materials and patterns. Thanks so much for linking up The Creative Circle!
Thanks Jenn, it will be a wreath for (almost) all seasons.
This is so cute! I love how it turned out!
Thanks for joining Cooking and Crafting with J & J!
Thanks Jess.
Very cute! A lovely wreath and a sweet story.
Thanks Susan. It’s always fun for me to try something different when writing the posts to make it a bit more interesting. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
This is fun! Thanks for sharing at Your Inspired Design.
Thank you Holly. I try to have some f un for Falloween… this is how we will call it.
Thanks for linking up at Your Inspired Design Link Party! It’s Falloween! Great job!
You get me Christine. It is totally Falloween!!
How cute and creative! Thanks for linking with Home Sweet Home!
Thanks Sherry, hope you had a great Falloween!!
One thing it surely is, Mary, is fun. 🙂
Thanks for sharing your creativity with us all at #tiptuesday!
Debbie we’ve even named it. It’s the Falloween wreath!
LOL, Love the schizophrenic touches 🙂
Thanks Mila, althought now that Halloween is over it may be time to hide the mouse… till next year.
What a fun wreath idea. Very creative. Thanks for partying with us at Snickerdoodle Sunday.
Thank you Beverly. And now we’ll embrace November and all things Fall, so goodbye little mouse.
Cute wreath! I really like the different textures of fabrics, and the fabric flower! Thanks for sharing at Submarine Sunday!!!
T’onna it is always my pleasure to visit your link party.
It is lovely I love the split personality of it -Thanks for linking up to Pin Worthy Wednesday, I have pinned your post to the Pin Worthy Wednesday Pinterest Board.
I really appreciate it AmberJane. Thanks for your kind words.
That is so clever and creative Mary! Thanks for sharing at Five Star Frou-Frou last week. Mimi xxx
Thank you Mimi for dropping by and for your sweet compliment.
Mary, this wreath is so you! I love the fabric, gorgeous prints, and the lace and rafia. Your sense of style is so unique and charming. Yes, it’s a bit crazy but it works well together, especially the mouse! I bet it surprises everyone who sees it!!!
Nikki, the other day the mouse fell off the wreath and I walked outside looked down and screamed. I had forgotten about it and thought it was real… lol . Yes, I make crazy wreaths because I need excitement in my life.
What a super idea. The fabrics against the other elements look brilliant. I love the way this has come together.
Thanks for sharing this on #LifeLovingLinkie too!
Sally @ Life Loving
Thanks Sally, I’m so glad you like it and don’t think it looks like it’s all over the place.
I’m just loving all your wreaths!
Thank you T’onna! This was a particular favorite of mine, it scared the visitors when they walked up to the wall.
Mary,
I love your wreath made from scraps. Doesn’t look schizofrenic to me. The colors mimic fall and the mouse just makes it adorable. Love the rolled flower. That could be left on a bedroom wall year round! I am subscribed NOW to your blog.
Thank you so much Barbara. It just goes to show that you can repurpose just about anything, and this wreath has everything in it. Thank you for subscribing.
Your wreaths are cool and whimsical!
Really enjoyed your wreathe. The colors and textures were so lovely together, but the final result was still understated. My Halloween/fall decorations are much heavier on color and I enjoyed your subtle results. The mouse is adorable!
A really cute Halloween wreath! But it was the post title that caught my attention. LOL!
