wreath woes.

i've always been SOOOO unmotivated to put a wreath up on my front door. couple of reasons why: 1) i'm really really really picky and critical when it comes to selecting wreaths. i don't prefer a wreath with a lot of stuff on it- i like my wreaths clean and contemporary. sleek. modern. the problem: you don't come across many of these kind. 2) i spent so much time looking at lovely wreaths for sale and the hefty price tag that went with them and got to thinking that i would never be able to afford my own wreath, ever. 3) when i did stumble upon some good diy wreath ideas, i never could conjure up the time to make one... but, alas, with my 12 hour work weeks these days, i have plenty of time on my hands- not to mention, a husband who travels a lot for work. and being alone with a lot of time on my hands does not make for a good combination.


so, i've decided to craft a wreath for the halloween/thanksgiving season. and depending the outcome, i may just have to craft one for christmas as well. we'll see.....


now for some inspiration

{side note: i've decided my blog is in need of a name change. and i'm stumped... anyone have any creative ideas?}
