Wreath display


Inside St John's Church, Baildon, as part of the village's Christmas festival, they had a display of festive wreaths. They ranged from traditional foliage wreaths to very modern ones made of unusual materials, and from elegant to quirky and humorous.  (See below: sparkling snowflakes, brussels sprouts and dog biscuits!) It was a very innovative idea and well worth viewing.  The church itself is small but not unattractive, with wooden pews, an elaborate metal rood screen and some stained glass windows.

  1. Brussels sprouts have become synonymous with Christmas, haven't they? Nice idea to use them in a wreath.

  2. I had a look through your last posts, it looks so christmassy ! Of course Hurghada where I was there were no decoration yet, but they started when I left. Although it's a muslim country Christmas decoration looks nice on palm trees and in window shops and it's also for welcoming tourists who spent Christmas and New Year in the warm weather !

  4. I'm a traditionalist when it comes to wreaths, but the dog bone one would be perfect here!
