I finally took down the cute hand-stitched "be warm" sign off my door. It had some little mittens... and was such a cute way to think of this awful winter we had here in New England... I really do hate just about everything about winter. If it weren't for my boyfriend being so stinkin out-doorsy... I would have stayed inside all winter sipping on hot chocolate... and eating yummy cozy food. I did take a stab at some ice fishing and snow-mobiling... both of which I loved!
Anyways... I needed a new display for my door. I usually would just go out and pick up something, but I have been trying to express my creativity a bit more...
I also have an obsession with purses. A few months ago I bought this awesome bag... and it had these flower embellishments on it. There were about five of them. I really loved the purse... did you notice I said "loved"? Slowly, but surely the flower embellishments fell off... every single one. SO FRUSTRATING! Unfortunately, it wasn't that cheap of a purse either... so forget that saying about you get what you pay for!!
As the flower embellishments fell off I saved them, thinking I would try to put them back on.
Instead I just ended up taking it apart, because I wanted to learn how to make them myself! It really ended up being pretty easy.... so even thought I had a fallen purse... I ended up making some flowers of my own, and creating a new door hanging!
I love birds... flowers... and spring! The sun is finally shining... and things are looking up!
It was a bit of an emotional weekend for a few reasons... but we must remember... with Spring comes new life... fresh starts... and lots of beauty...
*Think Spring* my friends!
Oh, my gosh! That is great! I love those flowers. You're so smart!
