i also love the wreath idea. My stmom made one for me for Christmas with red velvet and gold lame fabrics. gorgeous!
Here a pic of some of the clay pot craft I paint and a candle jar.
The left is a terra cotta wine cooler that I painted to use a utensil holder. The saucer is a soap dish. The birdfeeder can be hung inside or out (my stpmom hangs her in her kitchen!). The jar I was painting when I received news that my fave aunt had passed away and I painted this in her memory. The pot with the wheat grass was for spring. That's a really fun craft to do and very easy to grow. If anyone wants instructions let me know.

IF THIS WORKS, THIS IS THE HALLOWEEN ARRANGEMENT I HAD FOR MY TABLE LAST YEAR. THE TABLE CLOTH WAS MADE BY ME AND MY 2 GRANDKIDS. THE WITCH AND PUMPKIN ARE RENUZIT AIR FRESHENER COVERS AND THE BASKET WAS ORIGINALLY FILLED WITH CANDY AND WAS A HALLOWEEN GIFT TO MY DAUGHTER.

THIS IS A CLOSE UP OF THE VACUMN CLEANER COVER I MADE. MY VACUMN SITS IN THE LIVING ROOM SO I THOUGHT I WOULD DRESS IT UP A LITTLE. THIS WAS THE FIRST "DOLL" I EVER MADE.

The picture is not very clear but I did enjoy painting it. It was my thrid attempt at hand painting lighthouses so I spent alot of time on it. It's getting easier - like they say, practice, practice, practice. Now, if I could only master my scroll saw!
