Did I manifest wreath from the past :) ?

Is this manifesting? haven't worked much with manifestation, but this coincidence whacked me upside the head so it made me pay attention :) It was so nice!

Almost 20 years ago, I had a pretty metal Valentine's Day wreath for a few years but it was broken around 2000 when I had a kitchen redone. I've always missed that particular one, and so never bought another one.

I have had materials in the house for a few years to make another wreath, but never got around to it. This year though, even though my creative energy is next to zero after a family death and other stressors, I thought to myself " I need to make this wreath for **me**." So I did. It came out pretty good, simple and elegant, nothing much. But better than a sad empty door.

Last week, when I went to the town dump, lo and behold there on the retaining wall was THE EXACT SAME WREATH I HAD HAD 20 YEARS AGO. In perfect condition. It still had the sticker on the back. Someone obviously thought, "this is too pretty to just throw away, I'll leave it here for someone else who might want it" and that someone sure was me:) Yaaaaay / clap hands

Better still, when I got it home, it fit perfectly INSIDE the simple wreath I made, so now the whole thing is just so pretty, it makes me happy.

Anyway, it was an interesting thing to have happen, like the universe has been listening to my secret thoughts ( because I sure didn't say anything out loud to any angels or anything ) and was sending me something positive to encourage me

But is this manifesting? Because technically, I didn't say I wanted my old wreath back. I created a substitute, but got the real thing.

***gratitude***

I don't know one way or the other if this was manifestation, but how wonderful is that?! That is amazing. Someone/something was at work to have brought you to the very wreath you loved so much. :)

It depends on how you define mafesting. The finding of the wreath is a great story of the universe at work to give you what you wanted. But in all things just give thanks.

Yep I'd consider it manifesting, sometimes we manifest quickly, sometimes slowly. Looks like you accomplished the wreath though through your desires and emotions for it.

thank you for your inputs :)

I suppose I **should** think about taking it down now, it being almost 3 weeks after Valentine's Day... this week for sure
