Craft night

I finally got around to having a craft night with a friend of mine that we have been talking about doing since February! We have been so busy around here with work and all the things to do with our new home and any sort of craftiness has gone out the window so it was nice to take a little time out. We tried our hands at making some burlap wreaths for our doors. Thanks to Pinterest I had no trouble finding a whole lot of tutorials and ideas. I went with one from the blog Rooms for Rent that you can see Here. In the tutorial there they looped the burlap through the two outside parts of the wire wreath form, I opted to alternate outer and inner rings because I felt like it would make it look a little fuller. Also I made a small one to practice on that I used burlap wire ribbon on and having tried wired and non wired ribbon I would go with the non wired every time. Trying to pull that stupid wired ribbon through the wreath form made me so frustrated and mad it feel like my fingers were arthritic by he time I was done. So no more wirey burlap in my future, at least I don't think so. Here is what I ended up with

I loved it and still do but now I'm feeling like it needs a bigger "M" and maybe that "M" also needs to move a little further up the side. I don't know yet wether or not I'll actually change it but we'll see.

I was so sure that once we moved I was gonna be able to be crafty all the time and I would have tons of stuff to be DIY-ing over here and now I feel like I've been so busy with everything ese that I don't have time for my crafty outlet anymore. But it's looking like every other Tuesday I'll be able to do some pinterest inspired crafts with a friend of mine and so hopefully that will get me going again.
