HELLO FALL!

FALL is here...
(well at least it's almost here...)

I'm so excited for this season in Wheaton...a real fall with maybe some pretty leaves changing.

To kick the season off I decided I wanted to make a wreath for our front door.
(If you know me, you know I love a good wreath! HA!)

I loved this ONE I saw on Pinterest.

I decided to give it a go...


I bought the form with a 50% off coupon, one thing of the cheapest yarn, and about 4 sheets of felt.

CHEAP, ya'll!


I did a little hand sewing to add to some of the leaves.


Hello FALL!

I'm linking up to Life Made Lovely today!

    I just found your blog and it is just darling! I can relate to the move, we have recently moved from CA to VA and then to SC in 6 months time after living in CA my entire life. I hope you all love your new home and your kids adjust real well. They might have a hard time at first, but they will thank you for it later, it's a great life experience. Good luck!

    Oooh! I love that wreath. I don't know if I have the patience to cut and sew all those leaves. I am pinning it.
