I need to get over my fear of posting publicly. I'm not really sure what I'm so afraid of but I think I might start posting my more generic, non personal/life stuff as un-locked posts.


Yesterday I made my very first door wreath. I wanted something to hang in the summer months - and when I think of summer I think of bugs! :) I love most bugs/insects - I find them fascinating. The only bugs I don't like are the biting ones like mozzies and the dirty annoying household ones like roaches. Anyway, so I wanted my wreath to be a tribute to some of the wonderful insects that come out in the summer months to make this time of year just that little bit more magical.

Here's a list of what I started with and costs:
Plain willow wreath - $3.98
2 stems of very plain flowers - $4.08
1 stem of small yellow flowers - $1.98
Bag of Moss - $4.99
Florist wire - $1.99
Lady birds - $1.99
Birds - $1.99
Bird house - $2.27
Butterflies - $1.99
TOTAL COST: Lots of fun, oh and $25.26 (less if you take into account I have stuff left over for other projects)
Everything else (the dragon flies, the glue and gun) I already owned.

Anyone???

I am totally addicted.
