#1 - The beginning


So I'm doing Blogtoberfest again. Last year I was awesome at it! This year I know I won't be AS awesome but am going to try and put forward a good effort. Being creative, using time wisely, having the botherance and remembering to blog daily are the realities most of us will face doing Blogtoberfest, but it is rewarding, fun, you find other amazing bloggers out there, and you are inspired beyond your expectations. So that's why I'm taking up the challenge again. Look forward to lots of reading and networking over the upcoming month!! 

Join in over here!

Wreath-ing

I bought a pack of polystyrene wreath's for a few dollars a while ago.  They sat in my drawer for  a while.  Then a bunch of my Pinterest friends kept pinning awesome wreaths.  I figured it was time.  My first inspiration was this...

This oozes my personality and gorgeousness.  I don't have hessian though.  So I had to be creative.... and came up with my own version.




I love it just as much.  Even though it was photographed on the front door, it hangs in the doorway of my craft room, because husby "doesn't care for wreaths".  Haha!  I did cheat on the back of my wreath though.  I used pins to secure the hanging trim because the wreath is made of polystyrene, I knew the cheats method would be sufficient.

Last night and this morning I experimented again with a smaller wreath.


But this one has nowhere to live.  Need to decide what to do with it.  

Aren't they pretty!!   I love making wreaths, but won't make anymore cause I have no use for them hahahaha!

PS.  Don't forget about my wool giveaway
