I made this wreath 2 years ago for my living room, using old large format film and canister that I still had in my freezer from my school photography days. The other ornaments came from Hobby Lobby. I made the bow. I will post ornaments made by my kids and Grands later. Great topic for this time of year!


What a memory wreath you have there!!!!

I used to make many different things from quilts to clothing. Now "Home Made" takes different turns. I really like to wrap and make gift baskets. Unfortunately, I don't have any pix of gift baskets.


Recipricants can really enjoy the baskets!

Years and years ago, I got into making "Dream Catchers" and through
the years, came up with some pretty nice ones. My two oldest granddaughters
really took to making them as well, and in 2005, I gave them all my materials.

But...in 2004, I wanted to try something different, so I chose a small gold hoop
and then made the web out of gold wire...it was gorgeous, but my fingers were
a wreck! Thank goodness I only did a small one.

I also used to paint my own Christmas balls for the tree, but in 2005, my wife
decided she wanted to change the theme to all white, clear and silver...

I only have this one image that shows the Dream Catcher and partial views
of three hand painted Christmas balls.

Ornaments made by my kids when they were growing up; some of them are milkweed pods with angel hair. I made the collage.


Those kind of ornaments are so special.

A beautifully wrapped gift is something I really appreciate as I cannot stand wrapping presents!

Pg. 2 - Haymaker, everyone one of these creations is amazing. Your hubby's
grandmother had a marvelous gift and obviously was extremely talented.

Those are true family heirlooms.
Tim


Thank you, Tim. She definitely knew how to make the most out of things! I am thankful to have been able to get to know her.

My Daughter-in-law requested the twins get a pair of shelves,
just like the ones I made for big brother Avery .... so I decided they would make a nice
Christmas present....
She doesn't come on here, so the secret is still in the bag!


like the challenge!


Great gift idea and wonderful craftsmanship!

I did some painted Christmas balls one year too! Was part of a presentation I did with our art club. Think I can find them to post on here!
I love the Dream Catcher too!


Thank you, Lavonne...I'm still looking for it as we
decorate this year; I want to take some better
pictures of it...
