Hi everyone. We are joining Comedy Plus’ Awww….Mondays .
I know this isn’t awww…worthy, but I finally finished my 4th of July wreath, 9 days late.
Typhoid Mary expressed interest in my rag wreaths so I got a set online to make 3 wreaths for the 4th. I figured the girls would each make one and I could too. Well, TM told me she wanted me to make her a rag wreath, she didn’t want to make one. The girls had no interest in the project which turned out to be a good thing because there would not have been enough ribbon for 3 wreaths. I even added some of my own ribbon and yarn to what the kit had.
And the reason it took so long was because of this guy:
He looks so innocent, but he gets into everything and he kept trying to eat the ribbons.
Rosie will be here tomorrow with all the latest from our house.
That’s a nice festive wreath for the 4th! Lol kitties can certainly keep us from getting things done at times! XO
Thank you. 🙂 Yes, they can. XO
The wreath looks lovely. Cats and ribbons, say no more!
Thank you. 🙂 XO
Kitties trying to help is always interesting…frustrating but interesting, MOL!
Exactly. 🙂 XO
What a creative and lovely wreath for independence day! Another wonderful idea from smart auntie….
Thank you. 🙂 XO
It’s an awesome wreath … and anyway … we (at least cats can!) celebrate being INDEPENDENT on
any day and every day!
Thank you. 🙂 Good point. XO
OH that’s PRETTY! But no surprise that HE wanted to help make it.
Thank you. 🙂 XO
That’s a beautiful wreath, and you are so creative, Ellen. When we are working on a project, Callie is in the middle of it trying to help.
Thank you. 🙂 I bet Callie is very helpful like Rusty. XO
What a pretty wreath! No reason you can’t display it other times than just the 4th.
Thank you. 🙂
I’m not buying that it wasn’t me, I was sleeping act. Despite looking innocent, he’s a cat so you know he can’t resist ribbon or string. Good picture!
Thank you. 🙂 XO

I love your 4th of July wreath. Beautiful.
Squeaker is our into everything kitty. We get it.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches to all the kitties and a big hug to mom. ♥
Thank you. 🙂 XO
The wreath is beautiful. Yes, cats and ribbons can delay any project.
Thank you. 🙂
He does look adorably innocent. He is such a little stinker♥
Your wreath came out beautiful. If Rusty hadn’t been so helpful maybe it could have been up for the 4th. But you can leave it up now… it is still a festive time.
Thank you. 🙂 Yes, I will leave it up for the rest of the month. XO
Oona: “Oona was also thinking how much fun that wreath looked like. She is pleased to see Rusty was on the same page as her.”
He sure was. 🙂
I think your wreath is lovely. The 4-legged ‘helper’ really does look innocent. Sorry the girls were less than enthusiastic. It’s hard to anticipate what kids will enjoy. I have the same problem whenever my great granddaughter visits. It seems like I always guess wrong. We still have fun, but…just once I’d like to get it right.
Thank you. 🙂 That happens here too, but sometimes I find something they want to do like make slime. XO
I like the rag ribbon wreath! Sounds like it was a fun project, even if the girls were not all that into it. Ahh ribbons … we had one cat Weena who was always trying to chew/eat on ribbons. Had to keep them far away from her. 🙂
Thank you. 🙂 It worked out being that we wouldn’t have had enough ribbon. XO
It’s disappointing, to say the least, when a kit lacks enough material. Grrr… I’m amazed that my little imps don’t get into more trouble. I have yarn out for a project and they prefer my approved playthings. lol Be well, my dear.
You are fortunate to have such well behaved kitties. XO
Pretty wreath. He does look innocent. I remember trying to crochet with a cat. I spent more time trying to keep the yarn out of his reach than working on my project.
Thank you. 🙂 Rusty goes after my yarn too.
