Tis the season...for burlap and cookies

I am the first to say I am very uncrafty. I think of really good ideas, but the execution is kind of sad. But, i'm trying. I'd love to learn to sew, but I am miles away from tackling that. So for now, its me and my glue gun...and my serious obsession with burlap. I mean it, it might be a problem how much I LOVE burlap. Focus. Okay, here's my little Christmas project.
I purchased a plain wreath from Michaels and wrapped it in burlap.
I grabbed some fun fabric from Joanne's and made these rosettes. (God bless my glue gun)





And the finished project. See, I told you I'm not crafty but I am proud of my little wreath. 

I am, however, a pretty damn good baker and I LOVE baking. Every other Christmas I make about 8 different kinds of cookies and treats and pass them out. Well this was so not an option this year. So instead, why not throw a cookie swap party? It turned out really good (sorry, I forgot I own an awesome new camera and didn't take any pictures). But, I think if I see another cookie I may get sick. I think next year we'll make a lot less cookies. Baking 8 dozen is a little tiring. Especially this pregnant...


I know, its getting really big! Officially on the 5 week countdown :)

XOXO,

Court
