I made myself a Fabric Rose wreath using the tutorial found on You Tube by mamt4. Linen can be expensive at the fabric store, so I buy painter's drop clothes from Home Depot. I once made an entire slip cover for my couch with just two packages.
Sorry for the sideways photo, apparently it's a know Blogger issue. Didn't do it on my old site, oh well. I was going to wrap twine around a wood cutout letter, but found some already done at Michael's for just $ 2.50 each.
Recipe:
- grapevine wreath
- burlap ribbon - 1 or 2 colours (the blue roses are fabric remnants from another project)
- linen (I used drop cloth
- pearls
- twine covered letter (Michael's - $ 2.50)
- hot glue
Following the same recipe I made one for my Co-worker. The grapevine wreaths at Micheal's looked awful, they were dry, crunchy and covered in leaves, so I had to settle with a larger size then my first wreath. I actually think I like the larger wreath better.
Hey, thanks for stopping by. This blog's purpose is to display my crafting, card making and art projects. I am a bit of a manic crafter and work in spurts, so please be patient.
When GOOGLE purchased Blogger, I lost access to my previous blog Savory Stamping which was mostly dedicated to card making. I hope to re-post some of the craft projects in order to have a more accurate craft index.
So now for the crafts:
Last summer I was generously gifted with some old paned windows for FREE. Can you believe it? Two have found their way into the front of my shed and the third I have had a few visions of how to use, but reluctantly had to choose just one.
Using vinyl twine from Home Depot and a burlap wreath I made using Burlap ribbon hot glued onto a Styrofoam wreath form from Michael's. (Tip, use the glue on the burlap not the foam which will melt). I wish I had several of these windows strewn about my garden. I'll have to keep my eye out for more.
I love this dragon fly sculptures. Can't take credit for it though, I purchased it from Serenity Country Candles.
