New Home for the Wreath

Thank you to Lisa Burton for sharing pictures of the Carly's birthday wreath.  Lisa custom ordered this wreath from me for her daughter's 9th birthday.  It looks great on her front door.  Lisa told me that it makes her house sparkle.

If you have pictures of the wreaths that I have made I would love to share them.  Please email them to me.  I would love to spotlight each of them.

Before it left for new home.

Oval Grapevine Wreath with Eucalyptus Willow

Tonight, I finished my latest wreath.  I love this wreath and I am very partial to it.  I think it's the colors and the shape of wreath that makes me love it so much.  The wreath is an oval, grapevine wreath with burgundy, copper, and black/gold mesh.  Feathers peak out of the mesh and behind the greenery.  The greenery is dried eucalyptus willow and other greenery.  The smell from the eucalyptus is an added extra to your house.  Various ribbon is tied throughout the wreath including animal print ribbon. 
I will be putting this wreath on Etsy sometime tomorrow.  If you are interested please leave me a message.

Easter Wreath

I have added a new wreath to my Etsy shop.  I added an Easter wreath with a wood Easter bunny on the wreath.  The wreath is made of light yellow mesh with blue wire ribbon.  Silk flowers have been added to the wreath and sparkling Easter eggs peak out from the mesh and flowers.  It's not to early to start thinking about Easter.  Click on the Etsy Mini on the right and see more description about the wreath.

Birthday Celebrations

It seems I have been away for quite awhile.  We had a wonderful celebration for my daughter's birthday.  I just can't believe how 17 years have flown by.  She woke up on her birthday with a candle on her pancakes and the den and kitchen all decorated for her.  I even had a wreath hanging for her day.  The day continued with cupcakes in her Animal science class and then on to Tryon for dinner at Sidestreet Pizza and cake.  I am so proud of Kaylin and the young lady she has become.  The day was great and ended on a high note with surprise gifts.
Thank you to Connie and Tom at The Bakery Off August for making her delicious cake.  You guys are amazing. 

It Takes the Cake

Thank you to Connie Judd and Tom at the Bakery Off August for a fabulous cake.  If you are anywhere near Greenville, SC you must visit this bakery.  Kaylin had a wonderful celebration last night.  It was so nice to be surrounded by family and friends.  Each year of our lives carves us and makes us who we are.  Kaylin has had some years where more was carved than others.  Each good time and bad time has shaped her into a wonderful young lady.  I am so proud of the person she has become.

Happy Birthday, Kaylin

Seventeen years ago today, I was blessed with the greatest gift of all...my daughter.  Everyday since she has filled me with happiness and blessings.  Happy Birthday, Kaylin Lee Jones.  I love you!!!

Birthday Wreath

Last night, I completed a special order for a friend.  She ordered a birthday wreath for her daughter who will be 9 next month.  Lisa, had a picture of a wreath filled with balloons and I took that and decided to use the mesh, balloons, ribbon, and embellishments.  The balloons line the inside of the wreath while the mesh fills the outside.  I curled pipe cleaners and added them throughout the wreath.  Pipe cleaners, still a great crafting resource.  A party hat was added to the top of the wreath and Carly's initial at the bottom.
I hope Carly enjoys it!!!
I would love to make more birthday wreaths.  If you have a party theme let me know and I will create it for the theme.
