Fun Crumpled Paper Wreaths



I am so sorry...I've been missing in action for almost a month. I have been busy with life, kids and trying to knock out projects for Nov. and Dec. occasional sales. I have also just been so tired. McKale is now 19 months and still not sleeping through the night...he wants to sleep in our bed, so I get so little sleep. Not to complain...I am trying to enjoy my time with him as he is the last baby in our family!
I wanted to share a little project I've been working on. I see so many paper wreaths out there...I wanted to do something a little different. I am always making crumpled paper garlands...so I thought I would try a crumpled paper wreath. It turned out so great that I made another one. I love how they turned out. I think they are so pretty...so shabby...so different. I will be bringing some to the Dec. 4th occasional sale at Robyn's nest in Brandon, SD. (more details to come) I have been also making some pretty bird Christmas tree ornaments and green wreaths with vintage shiny bright bulbs. I'm also hoping to get a few fairy dolls made to sell if anyone wants them for Christmas gifts. I will also have my handmade jewelry out there as well as my vintage shabby chic items.
