Simple Upgrade. But Darling.ab

I found this green wonder, for a couple dollars at an antiques store. It has spent a few months in my closet, while I neglected its restoration. Finally, out of the blue. I pulled it out, painted it, added a wreath, sanded the edges, and gave myself a pat on the back for finally finishing something.

Getting Ready to Party

We are getting ready for my daughter to turn the big 2!
I saw this darling birthday wreath at Meet The Newcombs and have had in on my Craft-Dar ever since.


When my husband first saw this pile of balloons, he lacked any faith in my ability to create something cute with them.

Especially when it looked like this.

But over time......
And with a little Pipe Cleaner and Feathers.....

And of course a cute tag.....

Wah-Lah! A darling BDAY wreath!
