I think it turned out very cute and I am thrilled with the monogram. I think I will be using it on many more things.Another project of mine was a coffee filter wreath that I have seen all over blogland. I think they are very neat so I took the time at Christmas to make one. I had a sweet friend over and she fell in love with it so I had to make her one. And my mom LOVES it, I thought that she was going to take mine off my wall and take it home until I promised to make her one. Here is what it looks like:
My picture does NOT do it justice. (I think I need some photography classes with my point and shoot camera!). The first one I did I used a straw wreath, which made for a very straw-shedding experience and a very heavy wreath. The next one, I used a foam board for and it is MUCH lighter which I think will open up some possibilities of where it can be hung. I think it is very cute and you can hang it using different ribbons and change them out for each season if so desired. It also has a natural look which I love.
The last thing I have done this past week was this purse for my very dear and best friend. She had a purse like this that broke while shopping! She was somewhat heartbroken as it was her favorite. For Christmas I told her that I would make her anything she wanted that I could create so she asked for a replacement and she was very gracious to wait till after Christmas when all my Christmas orders and gifts were done so I could get it made. I used her purse as a pattern and created this:
She took and edited the photo, that's why this one looks so good. We both LOVE the fabric and she is in love with the bag. It has four pockets on the inside and a zipper closure on top. The strap is just the right length to wear across the body. I do believe I will be making more of these as they are very easy to do and very fun.*Please contact me to order any of the items you see.
~Everyday is a Happy Day!~
