Why do I wait until the last minute? I made this wreath a few days ago as a gift. It is a take off from Starbucks Wreaths, I bought enough supplies to make a few more (not gonna happen)
Oh and the Jalapeno Christmas Jelly! My daughter and I stayed up until 3am finishing.... It's fabulous over cream cheese and crackers. Yum yum
