Flowered Wreath

It was fun changing up this grass wreath. I bought it a couple years ago at Joann Fabric on clearance.

I grabbed some scrapbook paper, wire, buttons, and scissors.

I cut out some flowers and then some pieces of burlap. I also had to eat some of my favorite chocolate candies! Yum!

I layered the burlap, paper, and button and put a wire through. I also twisted up some burlap for a flower.

Added these to my wreath. Easy Peasy. I've seen many different things online, but this I had all the stuff for, which makes for a great project!

I bet you could add these to so many things. Any thoughts?

Quick Tip Tuesday - Cleaning your microwave.

Today's Tip is for cleaning your microwave without scrubbing.

Put 3 Tbsp. of lemon juice and 2 Cups of water in a microwave safe dish. I use my pyrex liquid measuring cup. Heat for two to three minutes until it is steaming. Leave in microwave for 5 minutes, then wipe down with a damp cloth. It works wonderfully. No scrubbing!

Do you have any tips for cleaning?

Cardigan a'New

Baby trying to swipe this shirt.

There are so many awesome things you can do with buttons. I love them...and collect them. This cardigan has always been a little boring for me. I've had it forever, and I've worn it...twice. wow. So, I tried it out with the yellow buttons.

I Really like it. Also love Yellow and Gray together, so, of course, I had to do that! The great thing about changing out buttons, is that you can do it again. No damage done. Even change it with the seasons. I personally am looking forward to spring.
