Every year, as a gift to readers, I buy a wreath from Suzy aka Georgia Peachez for this giveaway. Thank you, readers, for being THE BEST. I luv you! Suzy always jumps to help out. She gave me a great price (her wreaths now sell for $250! each!) — and quick as I asked, she made this special wreath just for us. She said:

Pam, I made a wreath with my two favorite elements, a knee hugger elf and a reindeer.

Heck to the yeah, knee hugger elf and reindeer! Thank you, Suzy!

    I love decorating! I have a large collection of vintage ornaments that I do my tree with so the Shiny Brite wreath would fit in perfectly. And knee-hugger elves and reindeer happen to be two of my favorite things 🙂

    My favorite part of the holidays is our church’s Christmas Eve love feasts. Music, candles, sweet rolls and coffee — and lots of love shared among celebrants.

    Elves and gnomes and sparkly things. This wreath sums up the best of Christmas decorating! Nicely done.

    My favorite part of Christmas is remembering, and these wreaths remind me of my grandmothers. They had ornaments like these, and they’ve long since disappeared. It would be nice to have something that had ornaments like them again.

    Listening to Christmas music! Can’t get enough… My partner makes me wait until the day after Thanksgiving to start playing it. 😀

    My favorite part of Christmas is definately getting all.dressed up and going to Christmas service on Christmas Eve. I love it every year.

    Actually, I much prefer Thanksgiving over Christmas…family, food and fun without the pressure of gifts. For Christmas, I do love giving presents to the kids in the family. And I enjoy decorating my front porch and door…this fabulous wreath would be right at home with my Empire Plastic candles, snowmen and Santa!

    My favorite part of Christmas is the pine Christmas tree. It’s fragrance and presence conjures up the ghosts of Christmas past, and it remains the same as it was centuries ago.

    It fills our house and lives with the Christmas spirit, the spirit of love, family, and tradition.
