Weekend Snapshot

my Weekend Snapshot entry no. 9

It’s the first Sunday of Advent and this is one of the Christmas tradition in here to have an advent wreath not only in the church. Every year this is the first thing I do before decorating our home with Christmas decors. I just recycled some of my old decors, fresh fir from the garden and old oranges sliced and dried. In the church they used the traditional one which is three purple candles which symbolize faithful expectation and one pink candle for joy and hope. I wish everyone a blessed Advent Season!

    Lovely advent wreath. I have one in my attic with the purple and pink ones but I’m slow getting anything down this year.

    What a beautiful wreath! I love that you took things from your garden to make it. It seems so personal and even more beautiful because of it!

    Thanks for the visit.
