This weekend in our neck of the woods was hot.
Nice, but hot.
We are thankful for air conditioning.
Saturday morning we relished in our favorite relaxing activities--drinking coffee while the husband plays some video games; then a trip to the grocery store.
We were also celebrating 6 months of marriage--it's gone so quickly so far and the husband bought me some absolutely beautiful peonies. He knows how to speak my language. No, those aren't a postcard. They are sitting on my table.
Saturday afternoon he left me craft for a few hours. I have been seeing a lot of fabric rosette headbands, neckalces, etc and I am in la la love with all of them. But, the budge doesn't let me buy as many necklaces as my heart desires, so I decided I would try to figure them out. After a few hours of work, and some patience...my rosettes went from this:
After 5 tries, I was satisfied..and moved on to the real fun--making the necklace.
I am so pleased with how it came out!!
It was a wonderful weekend. How were things in your neck of the woods?
Don't forget to enter the giveaway!!
