Green & Gold Christmas

Hey again! I am on a roll with the wreaths this week..I told someone today that I don't even have a Christmas wreath made for myself!

This particular wreath was made for another auction for the Child Advocacy Center to be auctioned off this weekend. I hope this wreath will earn this organization much needed $$!

I am in love with animal prints and I couldn't believe I came across the green and gold leopard and zebra printed ribbon...so this is what this wreath was built around. Hope you enjoy!

Christmas Gift Ideas for the DIY'er

Are you having trouble finding that perfect Christmas gift for the DIY'er in your family? I know what your thinking, "If they liked it they would just make it themselves". Well, the good news is, you came to the right spot. JJ & I are going to give you our top 5 picks for the perfect gift to satisfy a crafty person.

Kaylyn's Picks:

1. Hobby Lobby Giftcard

This is the perfect gift for a crafter or decorator and the best thing about it is you can choose your amount!

2. Kate Spade 'Bourgeois Bow' Stud Earrings

These beauties will run you around $50 and they are the perfect accessory for the holiday season.

3. Nikon 1



Now this gift is if you are wanting to splurge on someone extra special such as your mom, wife or if you want to be extra generous, myself. This gift starts at around $650.00

4. EZ View Craft Desk

This desk would be a perfect addition to any craft room. This runs just at $700 and is available in black and white.

5. Mani/Pedi

Sometimes us DIY'ers are too busy to focus on treating ourselves. This would be a nice stocking stuffer so that us busy women can get pampered! What girl would turn this down?!



That sums up my list of wants ideas for that special person on your list.

Now to JJ's....

1.  Ikea Giftcard



This is the perfect gift for anyone on your Christmas list, everyone is bound to like something from this place! The great part is, you can contribute as much as you like to this. Although, these stores are few and far between, it would be so worth the trip with a gift card in hand!

2. Cake Pop Maker

This is the perfect gift for a baker or anyone with kids! This would be nice to use for parties and showers. This runs around $50 give or take.

3. Pair of Pump Shoes



What girl can resist a pair of pumps? Who cares what the cost?

4. Airbrush Kit



What better gift to get the DIY'er than an airbrush kit? Can you imagine the endless possibilities? There are several different brands that could surely accommodate any budget.

5. Scroll Saw

This would be great for anyone interest in wood-working crafts. This particular brand runs less than $125!

If our list accommodated an 11th option, JJ & I are both in agreeance with what it would be....



Time! We need more hours in the day to complete all of our ideas that we find on Pinterest!

Christmas Wreaths

Thanks for stopping by! Just wanted to share some recent wreaths I made for a couple of clients so that you can get inspiration for your next project.

My first request was for a traditional wreath. Early Decemeber is NOT a good time to shop for Christmas wreath supplies because it has been picked through; however, this is what I came up with:

 The second wreath was inspired by a pin I had on my Pinterest board. The client (along with myself) loves animal print so I was ecstatic to be able to incorporate the leopard ribbon in the design.

Again, thanks for dropping by! Come back soon!

Whimsical Christmas Wreath

JJ did a wonderful job on this wreath! It turned out so good, and it was fairly simple. Its made out of plywood and the initial was purchased from our favorite store (Hobby Lobby) and painted to match. Thanks for stopping by!
