A spring arrangement

Hello again. I have been really excited that Spring is here. It is a warmer day today , sun is shining and I was in the mood to create something for my side porch. I decided to go with fake flowers because these will never die. LOL. I went to Michaels yesterday and got some flowers for 50% off. A great deal. I used Blues, peachy colors, cream and some butterflies. I also bought the little bucket that all of these flowers are sitting in. This too was 50% off. Very cute. I added a bow to the side and wala a flower decoration for my porch. What a way to bring in a spring day. Hope you enjoy. Make sure you stop by for some other crafts that I will be doing for Mothers day and a birthday project. Have a great day!

A homemade Chandelier

Hello ladies. I have been busy with our Disney trip so I haven't had much time to make anything over the last few weeks. This post is a homemade Chandelier that was made by my husband and decorated by myself. My sister in law is getting married in August and We wanted to make something for her wedding. I suggested a Chandelier and seen several on pinterest, so why not give it a go. The first picture does not show the last mason jar. I asked my husband to add one in the middle hanging down. So he did. We used mason jars from our stash, wire, and chain, and also the wood. I stained the wood to give it that rustic look because she is having a country theme. I got all the flowers, beads, diamond drops , pearls, etc all at Hobby Lobby on sale. Still had some left over to make some other items. The pictures don't do it justice. Looks really beautiful in person. Hope you enjoy.
