The weekend is over and still so many things to do! I think I might have finished this on Friday night. I got the idea from another Thanksgiving themed banner. I also scored some new candle stick holders from Burlington Coat factory. Our poor mantle needs life but we haven't painted anything except the bathrooms and we don't have artwork for the mantle yet so I'm trying but it still lacks.
I took a quilting class on Thursday night last week and learned how to use my walking foot and darning or free motion foot. I'm on a ROLL! Look at my meandering! Amazing if I say so myself it's pretty hard and it uses a lot of thread. But the table topper is almost done that is the first table topper I still have to finish the other two along with baby blankets for my little cousins before I leave for Oregon. But for one day after class and then a few days on the weekend I would have to say I'm quite the quilter now.
Lastly yesterday night I made this baby! It took about one hour to finish I bought 6 - 7 pack ornaments and 6 - 12 pack ornaments from the Dollar Tree and then followed the instructions from the U Create blog and VIOLA! New adorable wreath for the holiday! I need to attach a bow and then hang it. I think I'm going to hang it from our laundry room door which is right in the kitchen so I can admire my handy work. I think tonight I might try to finish the table topper and put our garland out.
I also have 3 tubes of ornaments left which is perfect because I am also making these too after I finish spray painting them.
Found a whole bunch at Goodwill andthanks to all the Goodwill bloggers that have now fed my addiction to wanting to go every day to find new things! Which means I get home about 30 mins later every day. Doesn't help that it's RIGHT on the way home I'm talking no way to avoid it have to stop feeling and the cashier is starting to remember me.
Found a whole bunch at Goodwill and
I also have a pile of things to spray paint from picture frames, to candle holders and stars to hang. I love being in the crafty mood! But I have so many projects I want to finish!
Oooh and I also can scratch another thing off my list of household things to do! My master bath is done! I'll post pictures soon.










1 Lovely Notes:
LOVE your wreath and Thankful garland!
