I am a KLUTZ...

All my life I have been a klutz. If someone is going to fall and embarass themself, it's usually me.

My latest boo-boo.....


What you can't see is the nasty swelling and black toe. I did it up right.
Managed to fall in my own drive way. 2 inches from grass, as John keeps telling me.
I went to Dr. R for my followup. He was more concerned with when was my last tetanus shot. Great.

Speaking of the follow up. We're all good, both emotionally and physically. We're just praying for God's timing and direction.

Ribbon wreath for hospital door

I stink at blogging. Sometimes I just PLAIN forget! I took photos of a recent project a few weeks back and I'm just now getting around to posting! Sorry guys!

As if I haven't blabbed enough to my buds, I'm getting a niece. I am SO excited! It's been a fabulous outlet of all those ideas floating around in my head that need a home.

First big project. Swayze's Hospital door wreath...

I (well, John) made me a circle from a metal coat hanger. I eventually realized one coat hanger was not big enough for Swayze, so we added another. I cut ribbon and fabric with pinking shears into strips.

I tied the ribbons around the coat hanger. Several hours, nights, yards of fabric and rolls of ribbon later....Voila. Here you have the finished product.

It turned out WAY cute. I must say...This was a labor of love. Lots of time!  I hope this one stays in the family for me to use one day!

Now I also know that hobby lobby makes a ready to go metal wreath. That would have been much easier! But the coat hanger was free.
