My Mother In Law had some old doors in her barn so I decided to find some way to reuse them.  I found a cute potting bench where an old door was used as the backboard and I fell in love. SO.....my MIL and I got to work today and made one ourselves!  I love the way it turned out and It needs a bit of cleaning and painting but will look great once i get all my accessories added!

Silver Christmas Wreath

For Christmas this year I decided to make my own wreath. I found a great idea from pinterest for one here:  http://deckthehalls-christmas.blogspot.com/2011/11/seasons-greetings-wreath.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+blogspot%2FVJisP+%28Deck+The+Halls+Of+Home+with+JOY%29. I loved the silver on the wreath but wasnt into the bird and nest. so i added pinecones and a big sparkly butterfly instead.  I think it turned out pretty good for my first try!  Only one blister from the hot glue gun too! haha
