all i want for christmas is you


well since my life has absolutely nothing fun to report i decided i would post another craft i did!
not just any craft tho another wreath! i finished just in time for thanksgiving! it is red so i figured it work for thanksgiving and christmas and maybe even valentines!
but i hope you love and get inspired to make one! it was so fun to make!




i bought a giant roll of ribbon and cut 45-50 16" strips



and then just begin tying onto a foam circle using any type of knot you think is cute!



so cute fun and easy! :)

Happy Halloween Wreath!

my conference weekend project!
well this only took me two sessions of conference to make but it was so fun! my sister jessica gave me the idea and we were going to make them together but we couldn't find any time so after searching on the internet for a few hours i finally found one that was an easter wreath here!
so i decided that i would make it but instead for halloween! :)

i took about 6 yards of tulle and cut it in 2 1/2 inch wide and 14 inch long strips!
and just began tying!


you can make the wreath as thick as you want it by just adding more everywhere!
i did mine pretty thick but i like how it looks big and fluffy!


then i added a 2 inch thick orange ribbon!

it is so cute hanging on the door!

i thought about after i finished that it would be so cute to do a red wreath and switch the bow out for the different seasons. an orange bow for thanksgiving and a green bow for christmas and then a white or pink one for valentines <3!
then you can have it for a few seasons!

it was such a fun project for conference weekend!
i was able to sit and watch and just tie!

MY SPRING BREAK!!



after zero blogging for almost 8 months i came to the conclusion that my blog needed to be updated especially since i am not living 2 minutes away from my brothers and sisters anymore! :(

thank goodness for facebook because i am not good at blogs but i am working on it! :)

hawaii was my LAST minute spring break!

i decided about a week ahead that i would go to hawaii! there were a few people who were renting a house so me and one of my friends decided to jump on a plane and go!





HAWAII was such a fun place definitely a place that i love! i ended up for the whole end of my trip doing my own thing but it was a lot of fun it actually ended up being better that way and i cant wait to go back one day! AFTER i travel the rest of the world! :)
