A little project I did late last night. This is what 2 1/2 hrs, 1 Styrofoam wreath, 358 Pine Cones & 79 Mini Glue sticks looks like. Yes I counted it all as I went, I'm OCD like that. I so love it thanks V & Co. for the tutorial :) And thank you Calie for helping me scrounge for the Pine Cones. Only a true friend would do that with ya! I'm dying to hang it from some fabric like V & Co but I have to figure out where to hang it first. So for now this is her temporary home.
I also couldn't resist taking out my fabric pumpkins again this year. I love these so much and they are so easy to make. The tutorial I used to make them is from HOLLY BRIMHALL.
This is another wreath I worked on last night, but it's still in the production phase. I plan to have it finished soon. This one is thanks to Eddie Ross.
Well, off I go to replenish my glue stick supply. :)

ReplyDeleteI'll have to check out Covet. I LOVE Lovely - I'm almost out, so I've been wearing Romance by Ralph Lauren lately and saving Lovely for special occasions. I have to ask - how do you get that list that's on the left side of your blog under "Want More? Click a Label". Can't figure it out...
ReplyDeleteAnd you think I'M crafty?? That's a lot of pine cones lady!! lol It's beautiful!!
ReplyDelete358? Holy crap! I love it though and only 2 1/2 hours, wow. It took me almost that to fill 23 plastic gloves with candy corn nails and popcorn for Halloween.

ReplyDeleteThanks for your help! I did it! Now, I'm just trying to figure out how to change the font on the blog titles and stuff like that. I want to make my page more personalized.
ReplyDeleteI do think it's ironic how we know lots of the same people, but I don't think we've ever met. :) Too funny. I'm glad we're blog friends!
Oh so pretty and fun!

ReplyDeleteI don't know whether I am more jealous of that GORGEOUS, and I mean, GORGEOUS pine cone wreath or that you had 358 pine cones at your disposal! All of your projects are fabulous, but this one, girl, you've taken the fabulous to new levels!!! And I am so heading over to Eddie's place to see what he's cooking up over there. ;D

Well Addison is so cute I can't believe she is 2 that ia crazy and thanks for sharing your canning story that is awesome I can't believe you have canned so much! Had you done much canning before, maybe there is hope for me. I've seen my mom do and helped a lot but have only done a little myslef.

Hi Rachel,
ReplyDeleteFabulous wreaths. These projects do take a lot of glue don't they.
Happy birthday to your darling daughter too. They grow up fast don't they.
Thanks for your kind words on my photos. Please e-mail me and I'll be glad to help w/anything that I know---which prob. isn't much. For editing I just play around until something looks right.

I think your photos are awesome. You are very creative-that makes it fun. I esp. love that you are always able to take such well-lit indoor photos. Do you use lights or do you just know how to adjust your settings properly. My indoor photos are terrible.
LOVE the pine cone wreath. We have a billion here, I could probably talk my mom or sister into collecting them with me.
ReplyDeleteThe Christmas ball one has been on my to do list for a week. Did you use plastic ones? I was planning on heading over to the Dollar Tree and getting them there. Is it pretty easy to put together?
Thank you for sending the font. LOVE it.
This is awesome! I had to laugh, we live in S. Calif. near the mountains and found some hugomongous pinecones...and I asked hubby if they would cause a flat tire...they were huge! Right then he drove over one and our tire popped and went flat right then and there! hahahaha.....love your wreath.
ReplyDeleteDebbie
What a great blog you have too!
I love both wreaths. I better start working on collecting pinecones so that by next year I can possibly make one. :)
ReplyDeleteOh I am sooo dazzled! cute cute cute!!! I'm thinking it's time to take a trip to the woods. Your hutch is adorable and the wreath is a marvelous addition! I LOVE the ornament one too! Thanks for the great ideas and tutorial links!
ReplyDeleteLa-la-la-love your pinecone wreath!! It is fab!! I'm thinkin' I NEED one. Great for fall and Christmas, for me anyway.
ReplyDeleteElise
♥ I love the the ornament wreath!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your pinecone wreath! I saw the same tutorial and knew I had to make one. We headed up the mountain, and to my disbelief, we could not find a single pinecone. Not one! Not on the ground, not on a tree. It was the strangest thing I've ever seen. I guess I'll have to try again next year.
ReplyDeleteThe pinecone wreath looks great!
ReplyDeleteI think I might do the ornament one.
Love the wreaths, all of them...you even got me to get out today and go buy some ornaments so I can make me a Christmas one like you shared of the Eddie Ross one...I hope I can have it finished this weekend...then maybe I will have something interesting to blog about...
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better! Yes, little Man has a cough (but Dr.'s say he is ok) but he coughs so much he vomits, poor child.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, after seeing these I think I may have to invest on a glue gun, you think?
Rachel that wreath turned out fabulous! I am so glad we got to share that moment of pinecone bliss! Memories that last a lifetime baby! Good times!
ReplyDeleteSo the balls are glued together on a wire hanger?
