So I envy of all those moms who create the most beautiful things. Like a princess bed for their daughter, or their own jewelry. Lately I stumbled upon the most beautiful birthday wreath, and I decided against my better judgement: 'I can do that!' And I set to work, but somehow it's not the way I had envisaged it…
Look:
But this is what it was supposed to look like!
Are a you an arts and crafts mom?
You probably just need more balloons. They also may have used a wire wreath and tied the balloons on.
ReplyDeleteYes, it looks like a wire wreath and tied balloons to make it look fuller for less. Something like this maybe: http://www.michaels.com/ashland-wire-wreath-fraom/M10174333.html?dwvar_M10174333_color=Dark%20Green#q=wire+wreath&start=1
Deletebahahahahaha. Is it okay that I'm laughing?
ReplyDeleteFor the record, I also saw the balloon wreath and thought "humph. easy. I can do this." And no, mine looked nothing like the way it is supposed to. I bet you could add more balloons and get it looking okay. But I got bored halfway through and quit. QUITTING IS FOR WINNERS.
I like your attitude Bargain Babe ; )
DeleteOh, this is fun! I've had some good outcomes . . . and then some not-so-good results.
ReplyDeleteI've noticed the same thing with science experiments. Rarely are they are flashy as the book promises!
I am NOT crafty at all. I pay people to craft for me.
ReplyDeleteYou are a smart woman!
DeleteMy Mom is amazing. She can create so many things. I got NONE of those genes. I can't craft anything. But that's ok, because that's energy I can focus on something that's a better use of my time! I used to fight it and really try to do crafts, but at a certain point you just have to accept that you are just not crafty, and that's ok!
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty funny! I have to say, I've been gifted in the art of crafts, but I can't say all my projects turned out great. Thanks for sharing and giving us all a good giggle. :)

That's probably what mine would have looked like too...LOL! I'll bet you can make it look better just by adding more balloons...it's worth a try! Thanks so much for sharing with Share The Wealth Sunday!
