Rose Petal Chandelier in the making

Okay I am attempting to make a rose petal chandelier (pinterest again) :) I told you I was addicted.  I hot glued nine rose petals together and then glued them around three different sizes of embroidery hoops.  I still have some tweaking to do the fish line I used was too light.  I am waiting on the hubby to find his heavier line. Then it will look more graduated.   It is going to hang in my bathroom but I want to put rosettes and ribbon and maybe some bling on it yet.  I'll take a pic of the final product when its done.  The petals I got at the dollar store.  So it only cost a couple of dollars.

Burlap and Lace tablerunner

 I was on pinterest (which I am addicted too) and found a burlap and lace table runner and thought I would love to make one for my antique dough table.
It was so easy to make.  I had it done in a half hour.  I had the lace already and the rosettes my daughter had made and left for me :) So my only cost was the burlap which I got at hobby lobby half off.  The project cost me $2.49 EXCITING!

My Fall Wreath

I was looking for a fall wreath and did not like the prices of the ones I found.   So I started looking on pinterest and found a square one.  I knew I had to make it!!!






I just used a square picture frame and covered it with dollar store leaves (gotta love that dollar store).  It was a fun and inexpensive project.  I just doubled my ribbon and hung it on my screen door.
