Go outside!

Gather nature's bounty to create beautiful decorations for your home.

Look for rocks,  
          feathers,  
                  twigs
                        leaves,  
                            flowers 
                                            and branches.

I cut branches from the honeysuckle vine in my yard, to create an arrangement to hang outside our front windows.  I wired the vines together in the center, and added a large bow, ribbons, and a bell windchime.

 It's so festive!  

And it was free since I had everything I needed at home to make it.
