~Funky Summer Flamingo Wreath~

Who's ready for summer? This girl right here is!!

I wanted to make a fun summer wreath and I think I hit the spot just right with this wreath!

It's fun, funky, colorful, and screams let's go take a dip in the pool!

I used 3 different types of colored deco mesh from Creative Gift Packaging and 2 different types of ribbon from Hobby Lobby.

The  cute flamingo is from the wonderful Hobby Lobby.

I showed my friends this wreath and a sweet lady bought it right away!!! Can you believe that?!!! 

She loved it! She said her Mama loves flamingos and is going to flip over it!  It will be her Mother's Day gift.

I'm just over the moon that she bought it! 

If you need one made like this one, I can make another one!

Just let me know!

Have a good weekend everyone!

P.S. I wonder how many !!! I made in this post? lol!

~Updated~ Farmhouse Style Rooster Wreath

I have received positive feedback on my rooster wreath. Thank you for all the lovely comments!

One, really nice lady told me you could barely see the rooster and I needed to do something to break the black up.

I took her advice and moved the rooster and added more of the beautiful thick black and white gingham to the inner circle. I like this way much better.

~Updated version!!~

If any one is interested to purchase this wreath, please leave me a comment!

Mother's Day is coming up!

Thanks again for the feedback!

Rooster Gingham Deco Mesh Wreath

I've been practicing making wreaths.

 I would love to be really good at it one day, to make it my full time job. 

It's fun to dream of being your own boss one day, right?!

Anyway, after seeing so many beautiful wreaths online, I headed to Hobby Lobby.

I seriously love that store! They have the prettiest ribbons!

I think I did pretty good for it only being my fourth wreath I've ever made.

Feels good to be crafty again! I bought some chevron ribbon, too. Can't wait to make a wreath with that ribbon.

Stay tuned!

What have I been up to?

My poor blog........I have put you on the back burner.

Anyway, how are you? I hope you are good! :) 

I thought I would let you know that I decided I don't want to be fat anymore. I hate seeing pictures of me looking this way. I also, hate not seeing pictures of me with my boys and husband because I'm ashamed.    

I've been a stay at home mom now for four years and boy, you can tell! Mama has back and a whole lot of other not so good stuff. I just let myself go. That is no excuse!

I joined the gym again and they have childcare there. I've been going 5-6 days a week for the last 14 weeks. Woo hoo! I lift weights and do 30 minutes of cardio a day. For my weight lifting, I focus on one body part a day. For example today, I did just shoulders exercises. Last week I started taking some classes. I'm really enjoying them.

My diet has changed big time! No more junk food and no more starving myself. I eat as clean as possible. The good thing I already knew how to cook everything. My husband has been eating this way for years. I also, drink a gallon of water a day. I leave my jug sitting on my kitchen counter so I can see how much I have left.

Another thing I have been working on is SLEEP! I still have to force myself to bed, but I feel so much better not staying up until 2 am.

So, how much have I lost? As of right now 8 pounds. I know that's not much, but I can see inches gone! My clothes are bigger and I no longer have to use a hair bow to keep my pants together! My jeans are really baggy now. It is frustrating to see only this little amount of weight gone, but it's better than nothing and gaining weight.

So, that is what I've been up to. I'm not giving up. I don't care how long it takes me I will be at my first goal's weight. 

29 more pounds to go!
