Horse Collar and Horseshoe Sunflower Wreath

Last Christmas I made a wreath out of an old, worn, leather horse collar .
I added a couple old horseshoes to it, some greenery and a burlap bow.
It really turned out nicely.
Feel free to take a peek at it here.
 
Recently, I found another horse collar at a flea market for a reasonable price,
so I brought it home.
 
I had a couple more old horse shoes and decided to make another wreath.
This one is perfect for Summer and will even work into the Fall.

Sunflowers, Garden Progress and Keeping the Deer Out

Today my husband and I celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary!
 
It has been quite the ride so far.
 
He took this beach girl from a condo across the street from the ocean in South Florida
 to the base of the Blue Ridge mountains in upstate South Carolina.
 
I miss the ocean terribly and hopefully we'll move back to it one day...
...but for now, I'm a country girl.
 
 This country girl has been learning how to grow a garden these past few years.
I started a 4'x4' raised bed container garden 5 years ago
and each year since I've added more raised beds,
but this year we decided to grow a traditional row garden.

Branding and More Burlap Wreaths

Projects haven't been a top priority this week.
 
Branding has.
This has been on my mind for quite some time and I'm finally working on it.
I've been making sure that my blog, Etsy shop and my social media accounts have a cohesive look.
 
I've also designed my business cards and ordered them.
I still need to design thank you cards and I'd love to get a stamp with my logo on it and a few other items that I want to include in my Etsy packages.
 
Here's a peek at my business cards.

The front is pretty simple.
The back has all of the pertinent info on it.
