DIY & CRAFTS

DIY and crafts is a great way to add my own style to our house. And to make wreaths and accessories work for our French Country style home. My favorite is making something old and new again with paint. Whether a piece of furniture or accessories so the look matches our French decor. Crafting seasonal wreaths is fun and I may make a new wreath to add to our house for every new season. Making a wreath that works for two seasons is the best way to keep my creativity budget-friendly.
