After yesterday's decorating festivities, my front door looked sad and un-cheery. I used my sacred preschool time to fix the problem. Inspired by thrify decor chick, I took apart some leaf wreaths and hot glued the individual leaves to a foam wreath form spray painted black. I listened to the upcoming Michael Buble' album Crazy Love while gluing and stuffing. I tapped, grape-vined and did the chorus line across my lonely kitchen floor. It was such great therapy. I LOVE the color on my door!!! Bonus... Total $8.30 (including the ribbon)!!! When I picked up Sunshine from Tae Kwon Do, I saw a hideous wreath at Roberts with about 10 scraggly leaves on sale for $19.99. Oh, the cleverness of me! Now I feel decorated.

  3. what gingersnaps and cream cheese? That sounds yummy. I like ginger and white chocolate. Nice wreath. Very clever. Your birds inspired me and I went and bought 5 black crows for my spooky tree yesterday. Haven't put them up yet though. At least your door is seen and beckons!
