The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there.

I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out!

So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it.

Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. 

This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%!







So pretty! So pleased!

Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

Deal! You just have to collect the bulbs - make sure to catch the sales!!! :)
Miss you lady!

I want to make one too, but like you, I'm not spending $100+ for it... I'm thinking of catching after Christmas sales, then I'll have it later years

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
