striped peppermint wreath
We’re on a peppermint kick! We made some fun yarn candy canes over the weekend and even shared them on our local news yesterday for a fun Christmas craft segment! This matchy-matchy wreath was easy peasy to whip up with no adhesive required… our favorite kind of craft. (; Hope you love this pretty striped peppermint wreath! Aaaaand since it’s the 10th of the month, you can also enjoy nine other peppermint flavored treats & crafts to keep you busy all week.
We’d love for you to pin the collage below, check out our wreath tutorial (after the collage) then visit the other peppermint projects created by some of our blog buddies (:
