Not only are you entering the giveaway... but you are also helping me create an even better My Creative Workbook website for you... so huge thank you!

My tip for you this week is about making a connection. Make sure that as you weave the wreath you truly connect each stem with the other. Follow the stems around the wreath to secure each stem to another stem at at least three places. Make sure you also have longer stems that connect the wreath further apart, shorter thinner stems that you can bind around the stems for a firm connection and medium thicker stems that gives the shape bulk.This way the wreath will not fall apart when you remove the cardboard support.

Enjoy!

Every good wish,

Christine
