No Martha Stewart, but I am proud of myself The last couple of days I have been looking for some Christmas wreaths to put on my front and back doors. Went to Hobby Lobby and Old Time Pottery today and dashed my hopes of finding pretty ones cheap. Some of the small, almost nothing on them wreaths were running $12. The size and kind I liked where about $30. They are not worth that!!!
At Old Time Pottery, I decieded I could make them for cheaper and better then they where in the store. So I did. I bought about $20 worth of supplies, including a hot glue gun and sticks and made two wreaths of my own, one for the back door and one for the front door. I am so proud of myself. The front is very classic in gold with red trim. The back door (more people come through the back door) is more fun and loaded with a snowman, pine cones and snow.
I had forgotten how fun it can be to do little projects like that. The last four years of working at my old job zaped all my time and engery for things like that. |
