Looking Forward
The words just have not been coming to me lately in the physical form of writing. I have instead chosen to express myself with my needle and thread. At this time last year, I was doing it by creating wreaths. I have taught myself to embroider and continued cross – stitching.
He finally has a hat and arms!
I have also been giving a lot of thought to my goals for 2015. Last year the focus was…

Number 12: The December Wreath
Number 12: The December Wreath
It’s hard to believe 12 months ago I started this insane project of making a different wreath for each month. I had also just started my MBA program, so this project is very special to me. Here is the 12th and final wreath which also marks the end of my pursuit of my Master’s.
Christmas is just a few weeks away and I felt as though this would be a great way to welcome in the season. It…

The Persimmon Seed: An Old Wives Tail?
The Persimmon Seed: An Old Wives Tail?
I was chatting with a few of the women in my office a few weeks ago. The topic of the frigid Mid – West weather came up. The ladies were saying it was going to be another cold one, so of course, I started telling them about the classic tale of the persimmon seed. Most everyone I told the story to laughed at me.
Just for size.
When my high school PE teacher told me the story I chuckled to myself…

#11: November
It’s hard to believe there is only one more wreath after this one! Boy how a year flies by!
Another thing that may also be hard to believe is that I would actually hang this wreath in my house. I think my mother actually would too.
So there’s some back story to this I feel as though everyone needs to know. My brother, Parker, chews… Where I’m from its what people do. I had seen some “chew…

October: Bed Spring Wreath
October: Bed Spring Wreath
After making this wreath I am OBCESSED with bed springs! I found them difficult to work with, but they are worth the challenge.
Materials
Wire cutters
An even number of bed springs. I used 14.
You can choose to paint the springs, but I liked the rusty look.
Twine
Fishing line. I chose to use the strong stuff like thread. It is much easier to work with than the clear kind.
First, you cut the…

September Wreath: Part 2
September Wreath: Part 2
Getting the wire around the cone to make the Pine Cone Wreath can be difficult to understand, so here are some closer pictures of how it’s done.
First you cut your wire to the desired length and work it into the cone.
Working the wire around the cone.
Then you twist it like so.
Beginning to twist.
Twisted like so!
Next make a hook out of the other end. Len inch or so to give the hook plenty of…

September: The Pine Cone Wreath
September: The Pine Cone Wreath
My grandfather purchased a 20 acre piece of property in Illinois about 50 years ago. It is the last section of what used to be an old orchard. My grandpa continued the tradition of planting trees that bared fruit and nuts. All of the trees on the property produce something edible or that can be useful to humans. Hence the reason I’ve never had Smuckers jelly or am able to complete this project of…

Better Late than Never: The August Wreath
Better Late than Never: The August Wreath
I have been so busy these last nine weeks it has been ridiculous. I am getting my MBA and three classes a term finally caught up to me. Until my friend, whom I haven’t seen in FOREVER, stopped me in the hallway and told me she missed seeing my posts on Facebook. A huge thank you goes out to her for inspiring me to write for her!
Terri, this one is for you and your granddaughter!
So, where did we…

Here recently I have faced some challenges and would like to share how I overcome and turn them into learning experiences.
My friends and family…

4th of July Wreath
4th of July Wreath
I didn’t do anything special this 4th of July. I didn’t even watch any fireworks. Just refereed American Skeet at the WOrld Shooting and Recreational Complex (aka: my second home). I did however have a lot of good laughs with great friends and of course I ate some delicious food. Compliments on the smoked brats go out to Brad, one of the best cooks I know. I could eat his food forever and a day…

June Wreath
Summer is my favorite time of year! It could be because I was born in the heat of the summer, or because of the fishing. Maybe because shooting season picks up, but I honestly have no idea. I just love soaking in the sun, county fairs, and of course wearing my boots! I tried to represent all of that in this months wreath.
What you’ll need:
1 grape vine wreath
Felt flowers. You can make them…

Wise Words from a Coach
Wise Words from a Coach
Where the index card sits.
Many moons ago my high school shooting coach borrowed Willie Mays’ words and used them to inspire a young girl. Today the index card those words are written on sit on my desk at college. As a matter of fact they have been there since day one. This weekend while I was studying my managerial accounting, I was wondering what I was doing sitting at that desk. Struggling to…

Weekend Thoughts
I went home this weekend hoping to clear my head of the many random thoughts which happened to be running ramped. Being in town with nothing to do tends to have that effect on me. On the drive winding through those back country roads, I noticed all the fields had been planted and I realized all I wanted was a tractor ride. When I was a little girl, the farmers who farmed the ground around our…
