So busy...

Ahh...I haven't been on in awhile to check out what everyone's doing. I've been working on my wreaths and such for an upcoming craft show! I concocted myself an *adult* beverage, been on Facebook all night, and now I'm going to post what I've been doing. My previous post had some wreaths on it that I will show again here, but they are 100% complete now, so they look a smidge different. Enjoy! =]



This is one is of my wedding colords, I love peacock feather as well.





I know we're all sick and tired of winter, but I thought this was cute.



An all yellow, spring wreath with butterfly and flower embellishment.


For some reason, it's not letting me upload anymore pictures, so this is all you get! =]

Some of my creations...

Hi everyone! It's been quite awhile since I've posted anything, but I've been busy trying to get my tiny business together. The wreaths I've posted on here is what I'm trying to sell, I love doing them! I've sold a few, but am trying to get my name out there a little more. I really need to post on Etsy...anyways, hope you enjoy! =] This is an 18" bright colored Easter wreath with small egg embellishments.

This is a 10" local school colored wreath.



This is a 13" Fourth of July wreath (will include embellishments, but haven't cut them out yet =/)


This is a 9" wreath that was inspired by my wedding colors (teal, black and damask).

Pretty Darn Excited

Things have been moving pretty quickly the last few days. I've been trying to drum up some business for my wreaths and topiaries. I was depending on word of mouth, but now I'm taking it a little further. My husband is working on my new website, trendypockets.com, to showcase my products! It may take a little while, but it will come about. I'm really serious about this and hopefully what I offer can expand once I start with the basics. =]

A few things...

I've been making a few wreaths and topiaries like my St. Patrick's Day decorations. I'm wanting to start selling them and have gotten a few orders, so that's good. Here are the few that I've been working on.

Everyday topiary for one of my friends, her living room is decorated in these colors. But, it would be good for Christmas or Valentine's Day as well.

Just thought I would share in some of the crafting I've been doing, it's keeping me very busy! =]

St. Patty's Day topiary


This probably isn't the best picture, but oh well. I made this St. Patty's Day topiary for one of my friends to use in her classroom. I thought it turned out pretty cute. I used the same method on this that I used on my previous two wreaths. Very simple and fairly inexpensive. =]

St. Patrick's Day wreaths


I haven't posted anything in awhile. Here is my tissue paper wreath with embellishments that I just completed. It took awhile, but in the end I think it looks fairly decent! =]
