When you find yourself living in the middle of the Desert, it can be quite difficult to get yourself into mood and the feel of the Holiday Season.
While the rest of the Country is sipping Hot Cocoa, Bundling Up and getting Cozy by the fire. We find ourselves in 80+ degree weather drinking Ice Tea, Wearing Flip Flops and turning on Fans.
But then you find yourself looking around at the Pepper Treas that abound, the Shrub Brush and think to yourself…
A Holiday Desert Wreath is in order.
So I began to gather my Desert supplies.
A branch from one of the MANY Shrub Brushes, Leaves and Peppers from the ever increasing and multiplying population of Pepper Tree’s.
On there own they are not very appealing to look at and quite Honestly they they look as though they are ready to be thrown in the trash.
But WAIT!!!
There is hope yet for our Desert scrub brush and pepper tree branches.
AAAHHH!!!
I would say that this is MUCH, MUCH better.
Simple Desert scrub brush turned into something, actually worth looking at and quite pretty, if I do say so myself. Wouldn’t you agree??
Using what you have on hand is Always a Good Thing!!!
Blessings,
Angelina
