I love plaid. I basically live in plaid shirts as soon as it gets cool out. Maybe it’s from being a teen during the 90s when plaid was a thing. Yeah. I was definitely into the whole grunge thing.

Anyway, I adore this rustic looking plaid Christmas Wreath by contributor Erica. She used ribbon to make this but you could also repurpose old, worn plaid shirts for this project too!

Very nice, one just has to have ideas and then put them into action - I'm afraid that's not me I never seem to have good ideas like this. :-)
