Christmas Decorating: DIY Magnolia Wreath
Hi! It's me again...
...Melissa from over at DaisyMaeBelle.
Thanks, Laura for having me back to share another wreath with y'all!
I love how Laura talks about the journey that we're all on...
...I remember my mom making wreaths when I was little.
She
would stand in front of her stand (made by my dad especially for wreath
making) with her hot glue gun in hand, wire snips and piles of silk
flowers.
We always had beautiful wreaths all around our house.
She made them for friends and neighbors... She made them for gifts... She even sold them in a store for a bit.
So how appropriate that on my journey, one of my favorite things to share is wreaths. :)
Today I'm going to show you how to make this Magnolia Wreath.

Easy DIY Outdoor Fall Sign (really, it is super easy!)
This post is sponsored by 3M, however all opinions are my own.
As fall comes in, I am hanging on like crazy to keep spending time outside. So, I thought I would bring a little fall touch to screened porch with an easy DIY outdoor fall sign. And when I say easy, it really is. If you can trace a line - you can do this!
I have had this old cabinet door, bought at a yard sale, for a million years. It was $5 and I knew as soon as I saw it, it would be perfect to create a sign.
Gilded And Filled Lamp
What? Again with a Christmas post in August?
I know.
But this time it was a contest that I just couldn’t pass up.
Lamps Plus and Hometalk asked some bloggers to take this lamp
and create a project that is themed for the December holidays.
My first thought was painting all of the silver parts gold.
Nailhead Trim Upholstered Table
I have a reputation.
It is true.
A reputation for being willing to take in long forgotten items with a little wear, maybe even some rust.
In fact, just this Sunday, as we went to leave the church parking lot – a friend stopped her car and waved me down so her husband could give me the old metal bucket he had saved for me.
It was one of the sweetest things someone had done for me in a long time.
Galvanized Plumbing Material Succulent Garden
Today I want to share with you a succulent garden I made using galvanized plumbing material.
But first, there is story as to how I got here…
Last week, my girlfriend texted me right about the time my daughter’s bus arrives. Normally, that would not be an issue, but in this case – I was still asleep.
Yup, totally overslept. I was out cold. Swore I set an alarm. Didn’t.
Normally, it wouldn’t be a big deal – just drive her to school and hope we make it on time.
But that day – was state testing. The final day of state testing. I should point out that we missed the bus the first day of state testing as well.
