[Nfb-krafters-korner] what is new?

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Terry, you seem to have this mixed up.  Jill was talking about using  
burlap to make a wreath and I asked what type of wreath she used a styrofoam  
wreath or what?  Jull answered back the metal ring for the candy  wreath.

Jill;
You are not making sence.  Your original message says  you used stiraphome 
and covered and now you are saying you used a iron  ring.  Did you twist it 
aroung the ring.  How did you keep the  flowers on?  I thought you covered 
the stiraphome and put the flowers in  the stiraphome.

So what did you really do?

Terry  P.

I took a metal wreath form like we  used for Theresa's candy wreath class, 
wrapped and folded it like a fan all  the way around.  I used 24 gauge wire 
to attach it .  the burlap was  cut in a strip like 6 inches  by 1.5 yards.
You could use burlap  ribbon if you wanted instead.

How do you mean that you made a burlap wreath?  Did you cover  a wreath 
form with burlap?

Hi,

I thought I would throw out  the question " What is  new"?  I mean what is 
the
new projects  everyone is working on.   Have you discovered a new trend  in
crafting?  Did you find a unique  item at a recent craft  fair?  Please 
share it with us all!  I  believe that burlap is  becoming popular for home 
décor.
Has anyone made  something using  burlap?  I made a burlap wreath and 
adorned it with  summer silk  flowers as a wedding gift.  Over the weekend I made 
 a
memorial  flower arrangement for my best friend's daughters grave.   My  
friend
lost her daughter 11 years ago when the little girl was  only  3.  Each 
year she and I try to make special arrangements for  her  little angel Kali.  
This year I also covered the Styrofoam with  burlap  and used greenery and 
small
pink silk flowers to decorate the  piece.   This is a sad but fulfilling 
craft
for me.  I  also made arrangements  for my parent's grave in May.  It is my 
way  to show my honor and love  to them still.  Does anyone else work  with 
silk  flowers?
