You're probably asking how I'm going to be using all of this miscellaneous stuff in the pic. Well, Tausha over at Sassy Style Redesign (www.sassystyleredesign.blogspot.com) did a segment on Studio 5 (a local Utah program that often highlights bloggers) and inspired me to borrow her idea. Thanks Tausha! Check it out!
I got some embroidery hoops from the local DI and then all of my other supplies and materials from Joann Fabrics. On sale, of course.
First one done. I love my sparkly shamrock.
I used a free print for this hoop from Today’s Fabulous Finds. She has a t.o.n. of fun stuff for printing!
The last one is pretty simple. This is just a paper mache (spelling?) letter. I toyed with the idea of spray painting it, but like the natural look. (I'm being lazy too.) Of course, the B is for Black...I'm a sucker for monograms!
I hooked all of these together with a bit of Irish green ribbon.
Here these little beauties are hung on my front door. That middle one is a bit crooked, I'm just telling myself it adds to the charm. I finally took down the Christmas wreath I had hanging there. Soooo.....there's now a little bit o' green in my home.
