Today I am linking up to the very fun The Diaper Diaries Things I Love Thursday. Why? Because there are lots of things I love but today I want to share with you a review item that was sent to me. Precious few review items, as great as they are, get the "I LOVE IT" title.
When I heard I was getting a Grandma D's 24" holiday wreath, I thought, "Okay, a wreath, that's nice." But when it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised with the freshness, size and variety built into the wreath. The description in the enclosed brochure reads:
"This beautiful 24" Oregon Wreath is bursting with fresh cedar, juniper berries and pinecones topped with a warm velvet bow. Free shipping!"
Arriving before Thanksgiving, I left it in the box in my cold garage until after we got back from traveling over the holiday. Pulling it out today, I still found a very fresh and delightful centerpiece for my door. It is the only Christmas decoration I have up at this point and makes for a warm welcome. The bow was different than pictured in the brochure but I was happy nonetheless!
The wreath retails for only $29.95, which is a bargain in our area. Grandma D's also offers 20" centerpieces that retail for $39.99 and another 24" wreath with a Silver Bulb Bow retailing for $34.95. I am seriously considering ordering some for gifts to family out of state. I LOVE IT! (Ohh, and if you enter code W0834 when ordering, you will receive free UPS Ground shipping in the USA.) Check HERE for prizes you can win for commenting! I can win too (for the most comments) so please a comment today!
I also LOVE that my mom made a whole board of our childhood in celebration of my twin brother and I turning 40 on Dec. 16th! Too fun! We got to see it when we went home over Thanksgiving.
Okay, I am just full of love today because I also love to see gas at THESE prices:
Of course, it was in the middle of NOWHERE Virginia – about 5 hours from here. Oh well. Easy come, easy go.
Have a wonderful & lovely day and go check out more Love Linkies at Diaper Diaries who just loves Dove products today!
Ohhh, I also love Julie Bonn Heath's post about Finishing Your Book that I just saw. I even printed it which I NEVER do with blog posts. Julie actually hooked me up with the wreath & Grandma D's and tomorrow I will be posting a review of her compilation book of angel stories, called Then Along Came An Angel. Check back here tomorrow! I will also be doing a number of reviews and giveaways next week on Reviewsings with Jo-Lynne — head on over there too for lots of great info!
Great post. And Happy Birthday!
Seriously, these gas prices are awesome. I love your entryway. I love the simplicity of a wreath with a red bow. THat is the perfect Chrsitmas decoration.
Thanks for playing!!
