Handmade Burlap Wreaths and My First Spring Festival

Well, tomorrow is the big day!   I'll be hosting a booth at a Spring festival, at a local antique mall.   I've been busy preparing for it this week and wanted to share a few of the wreaths that I made for the festival.

Cabinet Doors Repurposed into Dairy Signs

Where has the time gone. This past week has flown by, but it always does when you are at the beach!!!   My husband surprised me with an unexpected blessing. He was asked to deliver a car to Fort Myers Beach, Florida. We were only responsible for our food and lodging, they were covering gas, a rental car and paying him for his time driving down and back! We couldn't pass up the opportunity and so we were off. It was a long drive, but sooo worth it!   This beach girl was back in her element! We were able to spend a lot of time walking and relaxing along Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel and Captiva Island. We enjoyed great meals at waterfront restaurants and soaked up as much sunshine and warmth as we could before heading home to more freezing temps.     Now we're back home and back to working on projects. The project I decided to work on first was repurposing two old kitchen cabinet doors. I picked them up at a Habitat Restore in Blue Ridge, Georgia a couple weeks ago, while visiting my mom.   

    They started off looking like this.

Burlap Easter Spring Wreath with Nest and Eggs

I was so inspired last week by the burlap wreaths that Sharon from Elizabeth & Co. created that I had to make one!   Sharon has been nicknamed "The Queen of Wreaths" and if you check out her blog you will see why.     I just happened to see her Spring wreath post a few hours before I was heading to Michaels. Talk about perfect timing!
