'tis the season to be resourceful!











Happy Holidays to all!

In these times of cautious consumption it's still time to celebrate... and decorate!

I've been making resourceful wreaths out of common materials, some that would otherwise end up in the recycle bin.

Offered in 2 sizes: small = 10 inch ring/ approx. 15 inch final for $65.
large = 12 inch ring/ approx. 18 inch final for $75.

Materials include postal paper, holiday sale ads, the Pink Section (Sunday Datebook), and coffee filters.
Shapes are either leaves or rosettes each individually wired and taped.
Made to order. Ribbon and/or bow included if desired.

These would make great host/hostess gifts if you have a party to attend and want to take something unique.....


I would love to hear feedback too.
I guess this means I am going to start blogging. Times they are achangin'! Anyone that knows me at all knows I would rather be doing just about anything but computering. Wiring and taping cut outs of the Pink Section, now that I could do all day!

Cheers!

These are super good Caty. Super good. Not only is the idea appropriate and catchy, but they are incredibly well made.

You are a very talented person and I think you are just swell.

My God, Caty - I loved the one I saw, but I didn't know you had all these! They are ALL absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! Not only are you a genius with flowers, you are a creative wonder with wreaths, not to mention photography. Awesome job!

Happy Holidays!

P.S. Welcome to the world of blogging. :-D

I have seen this up close and they are really beautiful and well made indeed. Not some amateur hipster craft project but the real deal, lovingly crafted over the course of many many hours. Keep it up!
