When we were moving I found a long lost Mason jar full of pennies left over from some sermon illustration long, long ago. I was too lazy to re-roll all those pennies so I stashed it in a closet until moving day. When Ali’s mom saw them, her eyes lit up and she offered to trade me a jar of buttons for the jar of pennies.
I got the WAY better end of that deal!
After sorting them all by color, I decided that there were more than enough white and light pink ones to make a nice wreath. I cut the donut shape out of cardboard and used a piece of Ali’s scrapbook paper to back it. Adding about a half zillion buttons with white glue was the fun part.
It’s hung with a nice long piece of white ribbon tied into a bow.
I think it makes a humble welcome to our home! Drop in and say hi!
