Hi Everyone,

Last Friday my Great Aunt Louise passed away at 89 years old. We all miss her greatly, she always had a way to make everyone laugh. I will be taking a few days off to be with my family. I will start posting again some time later this week.

Thank you,
Caroline

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there. I'll be spending the entire day with my mom (who I think is the greatest mom in the world!!) and grandmothers.

Love you Mom!!

Love you Nana!!

About a month ago, Aaron (my husband) and I visited New Orleans for Mardi Gras. While we were down there we went to five or six parades and collected tons of beads being throw from the floats. When we got home I sorted all the beads by color. I decided that I would create different holiday wreaths, above is the most recent one that I created for Easter. If you would like to see how I create these wreaths here is a link to St. Patrick's Day Wreath with step-by-step instructions.

Recently Aaron (my husband) and I visited New Orleans for Mardi Gras. While we were down there we went to five or six parades and collected tons of beads being throw from the floats. When we got home I sorted all the beads by color and found that I had lots of green colored beads, so I decided to create a St. Patrick's Day Wreath out the beads.

First I washed the beads and sorted them by size.

Next, I took a foam wreath that I purchased from Michael's and a hot glue gun and started gluing the beads to the wreath in a spiral.


After many hours of gluing beads in a spiral I ended up with a fun and attractive St. Patrick's Day Wreath.


To hang this wreath on the door I used floral wire and a nail.
