POPPY POD WREATH


I used  my POPPY PODS by filling a WREATH with all the PODS in my collection.

I attached a beautiful piece of DRIFTWOOD to finish off the section of POPPY PODS.
I like the look of this one.
I had collected these dried Poppy Pods while living in Montana and I am so glad I have finally followed my plan.

I like the results.

I NEED TO FIND MY PASSION AND GO WITH IT!

This is where I have chosen to show my love of crafting. I will show before, during and finally completed projects.
I have made a "TO DO LIST" of all the crafting projects I have been collecting up in my life that I have always dreamed of crafting.  But doing this has given me the opportunity to really look at all the many craft projects that I have wanted to have the time to work on.

Since starting this collecting most of my life I know that I need to weed through all of them and decide what I really want to be doing with the rest of my life and my daily time. 

What are my favorite projects?

What really speaks to me?

What really makes my heart happy to spend my time on?

A few crafts spoke to me from my heart. And these are the crafts that are my passion and I want to do them for the rest of my life. They take the least amount of product, the least amount of storage space and the least amount of work space. So they are all working out real well for me!

This is the list I have decided on....

TO DO LIST....
  • CROSS STITCH KITS
  • EMBROIDERY KITS
  • X- POPPY POD WREATHS
  • DOLLS TO DONATE
  • LG. PINE CONE DOOR HANGERS
  • MEDITATION STONES
  • SEA SHELL WREATHS
  • PINE CONE WREATH'S
  • X- TRANSFER BEAD PATTERNS 17 PATTERNS COMPLETED
  • I know this list seems long but I have put many projects in my 'to sell' boxes so I can have time to do my favorites.
After this list is completed the crafts that I will continue with will be...

***Cross stitch projects/ embrodery

***beading jewelry

and most important....

***beading on an Indian loom.

These 3 crafts are the ones that I have decided that excite me the most and feel like they are my true passion.  And I want to continue doing them for many days to come.
It feels good to free myself of so many crafts that really don't feel that important to me. I feel as though a large weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I am free to do my favorite crafts.
What a wonderful Life!
