Again, since we will be staying in London for Christmas, I am trying to create Christmas atmosphere around our little flat, this time, the Christmas wreath.

I wondered around our allotment to pick some appropriate stems like reeds to make the base, and decided to use twigs of a bush, ‘purl bush’ I guess, and picked some herbs such as rosemary, lavender, sage, summer savoury and thyme.

Using a wire for beads craft, I made just a circled base using twigs of the bush, then put all the herbs on the base.

Then put a recycled ribbon in the end, which I was quite happy, however…

I was told that a purple ribbon on a wreath implies DEATH, so better to change it to red…

Do you like the red ribbon better? I still can not convince myself the red one is better, though.
