    Ruby love making this little wreath to hang this year. It was such a quick and easy little project. We shared the tutorial a couple of years ago on the Little Passports website and are excited to share it with our own readers today!  I found a jar of green buttons in the craft section at the store and let her loose! This would be cute in a rainbow of button colors to hang in a child's bedroom. Coordinate the buttons with their favorite colors! Today we're sticking to a holiday theme so red and green it is!

    Wouldn't this be cute with a few red buttons to look like berries? You can even make a smaller version to hang on the Christmas tree!
