They call me Martha.

Okay, they really don't, but I wish they did.  I have been bit by the crafting/cooking/sewing/gardening/ creating/domesticity bug BIG TIME.  Like, I want to quit my job and just find new things to do every day.  I want to plant herbs and flowers and tomatoes.  I want to sew curtains and pillows and skirts.  I want to make darling things with buttons and yarn.  I want to cook cutesy desserts, not just regular brownies.  I also want to whip up delicious, gourmet meals for my love every single day.  To go with all of that, I'd love a huge, white, blank canvass home that I can decorate from head to toe.

Until that day comes (or doesn't) I'll just occupy myself with baby crafts & lead a balanced life.  In pursuit of my new vision, I made this yarn wreath on Saturday.  I had a big peach-colored ribbon on it, but it looked weird so today ripped the bow off and made rosettes out of felt.  I know some of the flowers look navy, but it's actually a deep violet color.  My camera can't remember to take accurate pictures sometimes.

Mckay didn't make the biggest fuss over the wreath make-over (even after I hinted to him that he needed to) & when I pointed out the newly made flowers he said, "Oh! I thought you bought those flower things at Anthropologie or something and just glued them on!". Yes. Perfect reaction.  He is forgiven for his underwhelming response to my craftiness! 

I had so much fun making this one!  I want to make 10 more-at least, too bad I only have one front door.
