Hi everyone, I have been reading a lot on here but I've never actually posted anything that I've done. So I guess this one will be a doozy! I'm into a little bit of everything and it probably shows!  Grin

































I decided to make all my gifts this year so this is what I have so far. I'm happy with my progress, I'm hoping to sell a couple things to recoup my money spent in the meantime. Thanks for looking!

Oh wow! I love the icicles and the wreath, and the ornaments...I just love everything!!!
What inspired you to make these things?  They're just the style I love, and my mom too...I may have to borrow a few of your ideas for a gift just for her!

My favourites are the button wreath and the Christmas tree card holders.  Well done!

thanks so much for all the complements. I try to make stuff that I would have in my house. Everyone in the area I live in has like a 'country' style that I try to stay away from but at the same time, I don't like super modern either. What is it about putting a button on something that suddenly makes you want to 'pinch it's cheeks' because it's so cute??? I'm just in love with the buttons!

I love that button wreath! It's amazing! I've been looking for a tutorial for them everywhere and I can't find one! How did you make it (if you don't mind me asking)?

It looks amazing!

My guess would be that it's a foam wreath with the buttons and baubles hot glued on, and a pretty, long ribbbon added for hanging...
I'd love to know if my guess is correct. Cheesy
