DIY Cupcake Wrapper Flower Valentine's Wreath


What's this?  A lovely DIY Valentine's Wreath for iLovetoCreate?  Why yes, it is!  Isn't it romantic?
Monday was Operation Take Down Christmas at Casa de Potter.  Le sigh. Worst day of the year, if you ask me.  Which you didn't, but that never stopped me from sharing my opinion.   I was feeling the winter blahs and then I stumbled on a Styrofoam wreath in my crafty coffers and I simply had to make a Valentine's wreath.  The making of this wreath was epic, in a Dino DeLaurentis or Ziegfield Follies fashion.  I wanted romance, I wanted pretty, I wanted it all without the slightest whiff of ticky tacky.

Retrofabulous Christmas Craftabration: Tinsel Kickin' Wreath


It's another dose of retrofabulosity inspired by McCall's Christmas circa 1968.  This is one of my favorites, it's really easy and fun to make.  I replaced the cut tin with softer and fluffier tinsel garland and added vintage ornaments from my personal collection along with some handcrafted pretty pink accents.  For the directions follow this link!  Stay tuned, more retrofabulosity to come!  Just dug out more mags yesterday.  Tune in tomorrow when I reveal my newly decked out studio, it was a pleasure not having to climb over boxes on the way to the computer this morning!
