Though the visits were mostly spent with Mom, I was reminded what a beautiful place Nova Scotia is. Hubby and I are even toying with the idea of moving home when he retires...Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-72766983147782255722018-12-14T06:31:49.599-08:002018-12-14T06:31:49.599-08:00A wreath made with shells sounds wonderful and luc...A wreath made with shells sounds wonderful and lucky you to be somewhere warm in the cold months.

It's too bad they are a problem. It was nice to find so many great hips to make my great wreaths.<br />Enjoy your time with your Mom!

He must have cherished your visit so much and it gave you a little piece of mind to see that he was doing well.<br />Every time you do a post from Nova Scotia , I get a little home sick (even though it has been decades since I lived there) .. I remember my dad planting a wild rose bush in Louisbourg .. the scent was fantastic, something I will never forget.<br />The wreaths are gorgeous .. you are so creative with such variations !<br />A very pretty plant post for this time of year : )CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-7880720468990073022018-12-10T05:45:17.968-08:002018-12-10T05:45:17.968-08:00Wild roses grow everywhere along the coast in NS. ...Wild roses grow everywhere along the coast in NS. They must love the salt air and somewhat moderate winters. They used to grow them on the median strip on Robie Street in Halifax, and every fall they would prune them right down to the ground, they would return next summer with a vengeance. I was saddened to see they took them all out one year.Julie Culshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17988026665697924548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-61063501514067525572018-12-09T16:54:59.660-08:002018-12-09T16:54:59.660-08:00Your wreaths are beautiful, I'm in Florida for...Your wreaths are beautiful, I'm in Florida for a couple of months, and really want a beautiful rustic looking one - maybe I'll have to make a one out of shells!!

Glad he is doing well. My mom is turning 80 this month and I treasure every moment we spend together. I'm wondering if those wild roses are native and that's why they do well where they are. The rose hips are gorgeous and I love the first grapevine wreath you show. They're all beautiful. Your wreaths are always stunning and your passion for making them shows.Karin / Southern Meadowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06514989784715204223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-91121626175556686122018-12-08T07:01:04.122-08:002018-12-08T07:01:04.122-08:00An Australian version sounds interesting.
