Put a wreath on it....

This past weekend I got a little creative bug and decided to complete one of my pins on pinterest. I made a burlap wreath. I was searching for a Valentines and St Patrick's wreath but none of them I found really were my taste or the price I wanted to pay. So I decided to make a burlap wreath and make bows for the different holidays- late winter through summer. I bought a wire wreath form, a roll of burlap and both heart and plaid wire ribbon to make two bows- one for Valentines Day and one for St Patrick's Day. 

When I got home and got settled I set to work making the wreath and the bow. After looking at several youtube videos I found the tutorials that best suited what I wanted to accomplish and use the materials I had purchased. 

And drum roll please....this is my finished product!

Not too shabby for my first try right?

I do want to add a wooden 'H' to it once I figure out if I want to paint it or wrap it in twine.

So I am set to go for the upcoming holidays just need to add different 'doodads' to it. Haha

New Year, New approach...

Well we are a good two weeks into 2014. So hard to believe! I have really been thinking about this blogging thing and want to get back into it. I love to write and I love to read other mom and wife blogs so I want to revamp mine. 

What I plan to blog about:

- Review/share my favorite or new products - family, mom and kid related.

- my love of organizing and when we move I plan to share how I finally organize the way I want to.

- what is going on in our world.

- I plan to include guest bloggers

- My pinterest pin completions. I have several that I want to complete or try in 2014 and I have even created a 2014 pinboard! Click here to go to mypinterest !

So with that I am going to sign off for now but here is to more blogging in 2014! Hopefully I can live up to that!
