Sunflower Wreath

Here is a sunflower wreath I made at my moms house. I used a medium size twig wreath, about 60 sunflower heads and wire. Et Voila! It took about an hour. I was amazed by how beautiful it looked, so I made another and hung it on the door next to this one. This was one of those moments when I stepped back and wanted to call myself Martha.

Turquoise & Coral

Here is yet another necklace and bracelet! I actually love these colors together. I think red is one of the best accent colors. It adds a bit of richness and class. Ha! Just my opinion...which is worth about 2 cents. ;)

Opals & Copper

This is a necklace I made during my necklace-making rampage. ;) I want to buy more beads but I have decided to exercise some self control and will not buy any more until I have made jewelry out of the stuff I have.

So here is one of 7 necklaces and about 10 bracelets I've made in the last week. These beads are opal and the pendant is a sort of copper/brass mix and handed down from my Great Grandmother.

Swoozies

I love this store! I first saw it in a "Country

Living" magazine my mom had. They were advertising really cute ironing board covers. A few months later I had the opportunity to visit it while in Alabama with my sis. It is the cutest store, filled with many wonderful items to make life fun and you home beautiful.

These are silhouette plates, an artist actually draws a silhouette of your child and puts in on a plate! If only I had money to burn.

Okay, so after hours and hours of endless, monotonous searching on my beat up lap top I finally found a dress for Mimi. She is the youngest of 5 flower girls in Roz's wedding (the rest ranged in age from 5-14), so it was nearly impossible to find coordinating dresses for them all.

Who knows if this will match the other girls, but it will work. :)
