The new shop was looking a little boring without a tree up. the day we got the key, this little cutie went up. There are some super cute things that will come in for this tree during the summer!
I am so excited to have my Valentine's decor up! I was on the ball this year. Here is my front door all decked out.
I took a cue from The Blue Cricket and hung a frame on the door. I found the frame at big lots and spray painted it red.
I love how it turned out! I saw this idea on a website and decided to try it.
IT WAS SO VERY EASY!!
Supplies- felt (I used 20 sheets because I wanted a big wreath)
wire
scissors
*Cut each sheet of felt into 3 pieces lengthwise.
*All the way down each strip, cut slits that are about 1 inch apart. This does not have to be exact, you just need to be able to slide it onto the wire.
*Form your wire into a round wreath shape and form a hook at the end. This way your felt will not escape!
*Slide the felt stripes onto the wire accordion style.
*Attach the open end of the wire to the hook end.
*Attach the open end of the wire to the hook end.
*Add embellishment of your choice! (The red felt always looks weird in photos)
That is it! A cute ruffled wreath!
Here is a picture of the sweet boy for the Grandparents!
I am excited to go to Atlanta to buy cute things for the shop but I DO NOT like having to leave this sweet face. He is learning all sorts of new things everyday and I do not want to miss ANY of it.
In fact...
It looks like we have a talker! He now says it all the time "Dada Dada Dada" in the sweetest little voice. Good grief I am going to miss him.
Well I will check in from my phone -wifi is $15 a day at the hotel (nothankyou)- So I am not taking my computer.
Have a great rest of the week and a great weekend!

Oh pretty tree but DARLING little man! My neighbor did a Jesse tree this year for advent. While different from the Lutheran advent wreath I thought it might be fun to do one next year. Her kids are my kids age and she spent a year finding ornaments. She picked ornaments that were not for the season they were in specifically but ones that were fitting for the long hall. It was just lovely. They did a devotion every night and each ornament was in a wrapped box. The boys loved discovering what was in the box and how it went with the devotion. I came across this on the web. Long story short do you have a jesse tree at the christmas shop? OR possibly some ornaments that I might be able to purchase that might be fitting. Let me know your stores website. Thanks Heather.
