Faux Cranberry Wreaths

By far, this has been the most stunning decor we made from this season.
Thanks to the 'Say Yes' real cranberry inspiration http://sayyes.com/2014/12/diy-mini-cranberry-wreath-place-cards.html we used our thrift store strand of beads to create long-lasting mini wreaths.

We started by counting how many beads we had in total and figuring out how many we could make if there were 20 beads per wreath.
O helped me count by five's to decide how many beads we could designate to each bowl.

Then Obi-Wan Kanobi began her beading on pliable wire.
We added a folded piece of tape to the end of the wire to prevent the beads from escaping!

Baby C managed to get two beads threaded before throwing in the towel;)

Then we punched out names on the typewriter and cut out teeny banners.
