Wreaths and Hats...what a combo


Laura has been busy with extracurricular activities....Being a Mom of 4 kids is SUPER busy, but I guess everyone finds time here and there for what they LOVE, and let me tell you...Laura gets pretty gitty when there is a project to be done, especially when it involves crafts and creativitiy!  Her current project/ LOVES are:   Project #1- a new wreath, was inspired by the 90% off sale at Hobby Lobby.  As Laura and her mother-in-law, Amy, browsed they came across the holiday isle that was now 90% off....hmm...anything good?  Laura has been wanting a red berry wreath for the door...so when she saw this garland that was 90% off and a hideous wreath, she thought with a little dismantling of both and then reassembling, the two might end up a winner!  Well, Laura loves the finished wreath  There was just one problem...it is too big for the front door...it won't fit in between the door and the glass screen door...so she had to find a different home for it...not too worry (there is a window in the nook that was a perfect fit!).  Project #2: crochet hats & flowers - inspired when she found out that her friend Jenny Hickman knew how to make them.  Hmmm...Laura thought, it has only been say 8 + years or so since I crocheted....could I do it again?  Can I resurrect a dead talent?  The answer is an astounding YES!!! She can!!! She has now made 4 hats, numerous flowers, and has plans for many more.. she just can't seem to stop!  It is VERY addicting...Beware!  They are perfect for a busy mama who doesn't have time to do her hair every day...just pull on a hat and waalaa you are cute!  Works great!
