Crown of Thorns

We started the tradition of a Lenten crown of thorns a couple of years ago. Every time the girls make a sacrifice, they get to pull out a thorn.

This year I decided to do a reusable crown of thorns, instead of a salt dough one. The toothpick thorns are much easier to remove, and they can be replaced if taken out under false pretenses. I'm pleased with it.

  1. I need to do it that this year. Seems like it would work better than the salt dough one. But the problem is my stick wreath is now covered in tape and cut-up colorful t-shirt scraps for the front door. Hmmm...

  2. This wreath one was less than $3 at Joann's. It's the 12" size. I think that bigger would be too big, considering that it's supposed to be a "crown."
