{wreaths}

I saw this adorable wreath that my cute friend posted on her blog, and I really want to make one. Tutorial here.


Another really adorable wreath tutorial here. How fun that you can paint it for every holiday. I'll take 10 please.


Speaking of wreaths, I made this one at the beginning of October. Mine looks a lot different from their photo. All 3 crafts stores I went to were sold out of 16in wreaths (probably because every one in our entire DH class was making the same wreath) so I had to settle for a 12in one, and I wanted a nice thick bow. I love my little happy halloween/welcome home wreath. October's almost over, but here is the tutorial if you want to make it too!

i think i'll go get some thicker black ribbon. i finished my candycorn wreath but it's hanging with thinner ribbon and i like that thick satin way better.

we need to make some yarn wreaths for fall!

also, i made a little cape for penelope. i'll have to show you because i think it's pretty adorable and you might want to make one for livy. also, i want to try mine on livy because i made it (hopefully) for a one year old but i didn't have a one year old running around to try it on.

Debi- the 2nd one is made of acorns!

Thanks Ang!!! Miss you!

Carrie- Yes I really want to make a yarn wreath, I didn't have any pics of that, so I couldn't post it. The cape sounds cute! I'll call you later today.
