Winter Wreath: & the HOW to

Winter Wreath multipurpose if you will.  This will carry our home through the longest season we have in Vermont. 

Things you'll need: 10" foam wreath, Yarn, Felt, ribbon, hot glue gun  +  patience if you're like me and feeling under the weather.
Wrap foam wreath with yarn to completely cover the white or green form.
Print a snowflake template. Cut and trace onto stiff felt.
(I cut many and in different sizes)
I made many felt flowers to adorn  to the wreath for a bit of color 




Let the clueing begin

The combo is super cute!
Just add a ribbon and place on your wreath hook.  I just love this!!

{HEE's} Got her Groove BACK!

Finally. I'm feeling alive again.  I've lost the feeling of emptiness, sorrow, shame, and anger. & for that I'm very thankful.  I hit a very dark place a few months back and was so far gone that I thought I may never be myself again.  I am and I'm SO happy about that!

& With my groove came my craftiness! 
Craft #1: Rehab hot pink wooden rose wreath from Christmas Tree Shoppe.  
Wreath: $4.00
Spray Paint: Free husband's work bench :)
Spider Ribbon: $1.00

$5.00 Project that looked fantastic on our front door!


 Craft #2: Spray painted pumpkins








Halloween was SO much fun!  I loved decorating the shelves in our living room.  Since I'm behind I'm starting to work on our Christmas decor.  Can't wait... but I need a warm day to open the windows to start spray painting... Oy!  I hope I get at least 1 more nice one!
