Cotton Pickin Wreath with a Burlap Bow

I've been wanting to make a cotton wreath for a while now.....

Inspired by....

the cotton from our farm!

{we have an abundance of it at the end of the year}

Yup, that's right, my big boys and I hand-picked our own cotton! 

I honestly love how helpful they are!

I just kept adding cotton branches and wrapping them with wire to hold them to the wreath.

Gave it the final touch of a big burlap bow 

and a little junk bow {that I learned how to make on Spark Your Christmas}

and voila!  A cotton wreath to be enjoyed year round!

I also put several large and small branches of cotton in between the branches of our Christmas tree to add more fullness and the look of snow.

I love all this Arizona cotton!!!!!

Hmmmm, wondering if the sweat pants you're wearing right now could have been made from our cotton???
