I never did get around to making an actual Advent wreath this year, but I did fashion a makeshift one, so that we could still celebrate Advent. I used our Waldorf birthday ring as a base, with a simple greenery wreath around it. It's very pretty, but I do like the symbolism of the different colored candles. The beautiful red berries I got from a shopping center parking lot. They had this long row of Nandina, all dripping with red berries. So I went ahead and picked some. Not sure how ethical this is, but they look really pretty in our wreath. Is it wrong to pick flowers, berries, etc. from parking lots?
It is beautiful!!
