$5.00
Adorable macrame (see description of the art below) mini-wreaths to hang on your tree. These wreaths are made from durable macrame cord and brass rings, and embellished with signs of the season. Each ornament is about 5-5.5" in diameter.

There are 5 different wreaths to choose from (see the last picture for all 5*):
White - unembellished
White - with blue bells and a large shimmery sequin
Red - with tiny (real!) pinecones
Dark green - with miniature packages

These ornaments also look cute as door hangars or, my favorite, in a window.

* When ordering, please indicate the letter associated with your desired ornament.

Macrame ornaments are the creation of Dennis.

According to Wikipedia:
Macramé or Macrame is a form of textile-making using knotting rather than weaving or knitting. Its primary knots are the square knot and forms of hitching (full hitch and double half hitches). It has been used by sailors, especially in elaborate or ornamental knotting forms to decorate anything from knife handles to bottles to parts of ships. Macrame is viewed as a more masculine form of craft comparative to traditional knitting techniques, as evident in ancient Nordic tradition.
