Homecoming 2013!

Only made one mum this year...but made it count! Oh...and do whip up a peewee garter for my awesome 6 year old nephew!!

Homecoming 2014

Why I thought I woiodnt have any homecoming crafts for this year when my  nephew is a senior is beyond me! And of course once he asked then other requests came, lol. I've already got requests for next year! And once again I'm elated with the way it all turned out! 

CHS Homecoming 2012!

Just when I thought my mum making days were over after the graduation of my son last year...I was quickly brought back to reality! Here they are for 2012!

Central High School Homecoming 2011

It's that time again....and I'm up to my ears in homecoming mums and garters! As always I'm stressing over designs and details and worrying that nothing will turn out the way I want it...only to find that it's all so much better than I envisioned!. ENJOY!

Funky Feathery Over The Top Corsage For Prom!

This was my first opporunity to make a corsage ever as it was my son's first Prom. I was stoked! That is until I saw the boutonniere she and her mother made for him....and it was the furthest thing from what I would call normal! A white calla lilly, a peackock feather and some red boa....I was a little panicked needless to say. I didn't want to disappoint my son and especially didn't want him embarassed. So that morning of the Prom I drug my best friend along to Hobby Lobby with her baby in tow and a pic of the boutonniere and the dress on my iPhone. After looking at nearly EVERY floral stem there....I finally came across the perfect one...and it all came together from there!! Not wanting a traditional wristlet...we headed to the ribbon section and immediately found a perfect black sequin roll of stretchy ribbon! We left VERY satisfied.
After an hour of putting it together....the product was stunning considering what we had to work with and the fact that neither of us had done anything like it before. Enjoy!

Homcoming Mums

I've been making mums off and on for most of my adult life. And each time I finish one of my creations, friends and family try to talk me into doing it on the side. I've decided to take their advice and go for it! These are mums that I've made in the last 3 years. Hope you love them as much as I've enjoyed making them!

GO CATS!!
