Manuel Canovas decoupage Christmas wreath





I love Manuel Canovas fabric designs but don't really do big price tags- so I thought a bit of decoupage from the latest " House and Garden" would do the trick!!
I was thinking pink/orange/black as a  different colour combination for the festive season- it's fun to come up with something funky for a change!
So I started with this " decoupage material " ( Thanks, House and Garden !!)- some lovely pages of the latest designs by Manuel Canovas, Zoffany and others, all in orange or purple.

 Then I made some decoupage baubles- here below.



Made a wreath from some cable reel-cast-offs like the material below - nice to  come up with a different texture-  ( and to recycle is always a plus )  :

Wrapped it round and tied with pink/purple ribbonns-  here is the wreath detail:


and enclose a detail and the final result of the wreath....

Have you got any plans for Christmas wreaths? And which colours are you going to go for? I love your comments and feedback!!
