Halloween/Fall Wreaths

Here are some photos of some holiday crafting I have been doing.  I am going to take photos of all the custom stuff I make, handmade goodies, baked goodies and more.  Also once I get the house decorated I will try to post some photos of that as well.

First off I made a Halloween wreath that was witch themed for myself, but a friend saw it and offered me money for it so I couldn't turn her down.  She also happens to be a neighbor so the other neighbors have all been asking so I showed them a few ideas I had found for wreaths on pinterest and Michael's site now I am making them for people and charging anywhere from $35-$65 depending on size, theme, detail and expense for products.  The photos below are not finished, they are still being completed.  Just wanted to get some samples up so you can get an idea of how they look.  The witch one will have legs dangling from the bottom on one and the other one I used a broom instead of the word eek.  Then the fall ones I have owls, scarecrows, turkey, acorns, and so much more.  Also have these cute bells that are shaped either like pumpkins or acorns if you want one that makes a little noise, some people like that on the door so they hear when it is opened or closed.  I will be posting more photos after the weekend cause during the week I have to literally steal time from my kids and taking care of my mom to get any time to do anything like this.  Things have been hectic with two kids in school now and since my mom fell and broke her hip=(.

I also make fall/thanksgiving which I have a photo of one, ones with initials, house numbers, anytime of the year wreaths, any holiday, candle wreaths, smaller ones, all kinds of things.  I love to do crafts.  I also make blinged out candles, candle holders, towels, jewelry, chair covers for the holidays, blinged out phone case, ipod covers, pumpkins, anything you can think of I can bling it up.

Look through my blog for my Halloween event last year if you want to see some of my custom decor, dessert/candy table for Halloween and my custom Halloween cakes, cupcakes, and treats.  I love the holidays and tend to go over board lol.  I just got an awesome pan to make a skeleton in a tomb I can't wait to make it similar to the 3d skull, spider and other types of cakes I have made.

Off to make some more wreaths.

Also there is some photos of a 3 pumpkin stacked topiary with the letter B-O-O on it I got off pinterest. Check out my pinterest page and follow me on there, there should be a link on this blog in side bar, if not go to the top of this page and click the link to my other blog DLitefultrends.  There is for sure a link there for my pinterest account and while you are there look at the menu bar on that page for a contest I am hosting.  Giving away some nail polish and custom made earrings.  Many more contest/giveaways to come, going to try to do one every month or every other month to generate more followers.

Have a great weekend everyone,

Melissa
