Beautiful Sunday!

      I'm so thankful for beautiful, sunny, cloudy days! It's back and forth with the sun today. I'm thankful for people like you who read and follow my blog! How encouraging! I'm on a wreath kick lately. I just learned how, or shall I put it, still learning how, to make felt roses. I actually had them hot-glued onto the wreath and then decided to take them off. The roses just didn't look right, so I made some more. Hubby says these look better. It's nice to have a hubby who cares about little things like felt roses. I absolutely love roses and am trying to find some pretty pink silk roses to tie me over until mine bloom again. Some have bloomed recently but the latest cold made them droop. They still smell heavenly, though.
       I've had good success lately with one in particular thrift store. It is by far, my favorite. The others don't mark things down like this one does. I got some toulle, (spell check didn't have this word), sweaters, two I decided I'll wear instead of for a project; pink lace, a bag of flowers that I want to gesso or plaster. Have you ever plastered flowers? I saw that on someone's blog, I think villa barnes. Pray that I get over this sinus infection before long because I have so much to do before everyone comes here Thursday! Enjoy these photos. Until next time! Blessings from Bama!


Yay! It's finished!

The door before.

Roses before.

Just to show the smaller size, not finished yet.

Both sizes.

Materials used.

The tutu wreath. What will I do with this?

I was so fortunate to find these items yesterday!

  1. Thanks for visiting my blog and for your kind comment. I need to learn to make the felt (or other material) roses too. I've tried but mine don't look right yet. Sorry to hear you have a sinus infection... those are miserable! May you be much better before Thanksgiving!
