The Finishing Touch

Right before Christmas I shared our guest bath mini remodel. I have to say it is still my most favorite place in our home even if it is a tiny bath room!;)
I had been trying to hunt down a boxwood wreath to hang in the window but had no such luck. I was even going to break down and order the set of four small ones from Ballard but they were sold out. I figured between Michael's and HobLob I could at least find a boxwood candle ring that could pose as a wreath. No such luck so I had to make a wreath instead. 

All I did was hot glue some greenery from a garland to a small grapevine wreath. I would have used florist wire but I ran out and I wanted the project done like last week.

Though it is not boxwood I think it turned out pretty darn nice! I had enough to make two so now I am trying to decide where to hang the other one.

And before I go I had to share a pic of my assistant for the day. It usually is her brother that is supervising and she is rather elusive but today she decided she wanted to be a part of the wreath making. Her favorite room in the house is the guest bedroom!

Hope your day was a good one!

Your wreath looks amazing. I've been on the lookout for boxwood too with no luck. What did you finally end up using?

What a pretty wreath and the perfect spot for that one. I love the light shining through it. I added a berry wreath I had to our front entry closet door. Just tied it up in a similar way to yours with burlap ribbon and I love it there. Our entry is small and it is one of the few accessories in this space.

Pamela, your bathroom is gorgeous! The wreath is the crowning touch, and I love that burlap ribbon. My sister-in-law wanted a small boxwood wreath, but I told her to make one like you did.

Love it Pamela! I like that it is more whispy than a boxwood wreath which I think fits so perfectly in that room. Great job my friend! :-)

Is it possible to be in love with your bathroom vanity? It is beautiful! I love the touch of greenery too...gives me n idea. And your cat is adorable :)

Scribbler said...

Looks good! I really like your vanity. I need to do something about mine -- they are so builder basic. ICK

Pretty shower curtain, too!

chateau chic said...

What a great idea. It actually has more of an airy look than perhaps a boxwood wreath. Love it! Your bathroom is adorable as well.

I love your bathroom!!! Our ONE bathroom is about that size, but definitely does not have that glamour! :)
