Business As Usual

The girls at work go crazy over any wreaths that I bring up there. When I brought one of the new Valentine's wreaths up to work, my supervisor loved it so much that she wanted me to make her one that was similar, but round instead of oval. So I created this lovely beauty!

I brought it up to work this morning and - you won't believe it - I got two more orders from a couple of the other girls!!! I'm going to have a very busy weekend! Woohoo!

Eat Your Heart Out!

I know that Valentine's Day is still a month away, but since I have been making Valentine's wreaths for about a month already I figured I would start posting the wreaths that I have made so far. Enjoy!

The inspiration for this first wreath came from the heart-shaped sign in the middle. I saw it in a store and knew that I had to create a wreath based on that sign - it was just too cute to pass up!






















I found the sign for this wreath when I was in Hobby Lobby. It wasn't even in the same area as the Valentine decorations, but the message was perfect! It reads "All Because Two People In Love".































When I was walking through the floral department in Hobby Lobby one day, I saw these anthurium flowers! I thought that they resembled hearts and knew that I wanted to create a tropical Valentine's wreath using them.





































Finally, I found this "LOVE" sign in the Valentine's section of the store and knew that I wanted to make a sweet, delicate looking wreath.

Love Is In The Air

Great news! My boss is letting me display a wreath up at work in the waiting area in hopes that one of the customers or other employees might buy it! He loves the wreaths and thinks that they are just gorgeous! At Christmas time, he bought one to give away as a raffle prize at our employee Christmas meeting.

So I have had this wreath up there since the beginning of the week. I was hopeful that it would sell, but I didn't know if people would realize that it was for sale. Well, just this morning one of the customers loved it so much that she decided to buy it! I am so excited! It is one of my favorite Valentine's Day wreaths.
