Leaf Wreath

asdadsasThis wreath is so easy to make. Use a dry cleaners coat hanger and bend into a circle leaving the top part that goes over the rod as is. Untwist the area of neck. Push undried leaves through and fill the circle. Twist back together and you can now use the the part that goes over the rod as a hanger. It is suggested that a few light coats of polyurethane be added – this will keep the leaves from crumbling. To change up the look – cover with a thick coat of spray paint.

Valentines Day – red

Halloween – black

St. Patrick’s Day – green

Memorial Day/Fourth Of July – red, white, blue

Easter – pink, white, light blue, light green

Top your design with a coordinating bow tied to the top of your wreath!

My Share: Moroccan Rose Water

20170129_073851I remember the scent that my grandmother always had on her, rose. She is long gone now and I miss her so much. I wanted a rose smelling spray that is a safe alternative to be able to spritz on my three year old daughter that was not full of chemicals and properties I didn’t want my daughter exposed to. Thats the nice thing about this rose water – it is pure essence rose extract and water. I just had to make sure it smelled good – like a real rose.
