Latest Creations

So you may have seen a recent tutorial I did on making yarn wreaths.  Well, the creating hasn't stopped lol.  I've made a few more recently and thought I'd share with you.  It's truly been addictive for me!

I'm super proud of this one!  I was afraid the birdhouse would make it look a little cheesy or tacky, but I think it actually came together very well.  I think I'll make more with this style in mind but in different colours.

I still need to come up with a name or title for it for my Etsy shop though.  I welcome any suggestions!

This little ditty on the right, is one I made for a friend of mine.  It's a large straw wreath and it has some nice weight to it so it doesn't blow around too much in windy weather.

She just gave me a rough idea of what she wanted.  Actually, she said, "Something green or blue, colourful and as big as you can make it".  Awesome.  I love being given creative freedom!  So this is what I came up with.  Keep in mind, when we go to get pedicures, she picks what she calls, 'the most obnoxious colour possible' to paint her toes.  So I think this was perfect *giggle*

What's on my own front door you ask?

Well this grape vine wreath with felt flowers adorns my entry.  For now.
I had to wait to hang it as there was a bird making a nest on top of the light right at our front door... we didn't have the heart to move it before she settled in, but I didn't want my newly finished wreath to be a gold mine of twigs for her new home!  That's it for now! I'll be heading to the craft store this weekend though with my list in hand, ready to stock up on some more crafting supplies.  ;)
