Hoop Wreath Christmas Craft–December 7 on 7

I can’t believe that this is my last 7 on 7 post for the year. This year has flown by!  I have loved being a part of this blog circle and seeing the beautiful images of my fellow photographer friends each month. This is one talented bunch of ladies and every month I am inspired.

So for this last post of 2019, I am sharing images from my Winter Workshop, a crafting party that I organize every year.  This started over 13 years ago and each year we make a different Christmas themed craft.  This year we made hoop wreaths.  They were so easy to do and very inexpensive.

Here is what we used:

  • A 14″ embroidery hoop from Michaels.  They were around $2.50 each.
  • Ribbon from Michaels.  They were $5 per spool.
  • Christmas greenery from Michaels.  I bought garland for 50% off and cut it into pieces rather than buy individual floral picks.
  • Assorted Christmas ball ornaments that we’ve had over the years.
  • Greenery that I found on my walk.  I also went to Home Depot and asked if I could take their Christmas tree scraps.
  • Wire and wire cutter.

To assemble all you need to do is layer your greenery and then wire together.  I recommend wiring everything together before you attach it to the hoop.

Ta Da! They turned out so pretty.  I just love them and think I will need to make more!

Am I the only one NOT ready for Christmas decor yet? 🍂

I’m still enjoying fall colors, pumpkins, and gold candles. It’s hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that Thanksgiving is next week!

I just want to enjoy this season a bit longer before the twinkle lights take over.

Tell me I’m not alone — are you already decorating for Christmas or savoring fall with me? 🤎

Want to know a secret? I’m a big believer in taking little check-in breaks during my branding shoots. It’s a chance for you to catch your breath, see a few images on the back of the camera, and make sure everything feels on track. I want you to love how you look and feel during your session, so these quick pauses help us tweak anything—from hair to posing to the overall vibe. It keeps things relaxed, fun, and totally you.

Ready to get photos you actually love? Let’s get your session booked!
