Halloween Mini Pallets...

I made these mini pallets a couple of weekends ago and I'm just loving them. Instead of being huge full size pallets, they are only about 12x12 size which makes them much easier to decorate with:

The spider:

The Ghost:

The owl:

I made them by gluing wood shims together. I used my Silhouette to cut out the images.  I just can't wait to make some for other holidays as well!

FYI:

UGH!  I went to verify my blog with Pinterest and somehow it deleted every single one of my pictures!  It even deleted my Picasa Web Albums that the pictures where housed in, so now I have to go back and track down every picture for all 211 posts :(  I'm so not happy about it, but will do it, and will get the pictures back up.  Looks like instead of crafting this weekend, I will be uploading pictures.  Boo!!!  Please bear with me!

Burlap Fall Wreath...

Hello there!  I'm back after a much needed blogging/crafting break.  I've found that sometimes working a stressful full time job, being a mom and wife, daughter, sister, aunt, friend can get in the way of crafting which stinks, but I know what my priorities are! I have missed creating cute crafts and have also missed blogging, so here I am with my latest;

I wrapped a Styrofoam wreath with burlap. I adore the rolls of wire burlap, they make working with burlap so easy!

I made a few cute material flowers and ribbon leaves for the side.

 I stenciled the Fall banner and sewed it to the lace and attached that to the wreath.  Finally, I made a ribbon hanger and I was done.  So easy!
