It really doesn't seem that long ago since I posted here, but there you have it... Date stamps don't lie.
I'm hoping to revitalize parts of my crafty side by resurrecting my blog. Not only the paper crafting crafty side, which I still love - but also my many other crafting projects like painting, gardening and even my culinary side.
This holiday season I was loving the many flocking pictures shown on Pinterest. I was inspired to create my own. After reading multiple "how to's" I jumped right in. I picked up perfectly lovely wreaths from the thrift stores for cheap. I stripped them of their dated embellishments, dusted and cleaned as needed; Then it was flocking time.
I flocked many wreaths, a small Christmas tree, lots of greenery and garland too. It's a super fun project. Easy. There really is no wrong way. I really love the final look of the clumpy, frosted snow on the branches. I'm showing three wreaths. I added a beautiful sparkly grey ribbon to one; another I added pine cones and berries with a burlap ribbon; yet another I simply added a few white decorations. All these embellishments are either tucked in or twisted on - nothing glued. This way, I can change colour scheme or decorating styles next year. Enjoy!
Hope to be posting again soon! Have a great day!
