Where it All Began: The Cozy Yarn Wreath

I made this last year

The house needed a little something for fall.  My son was in preschool and the baby was almost 1 year old.  Gasp!  I could actually have a little time to make something!

I had seen (and fallen in love with) a yarn wreath somewhere and I had a surplus of yarn here at the house.  I decided to tackle my first crafty project in ages.

It was intoxicating.  I loved the wreath.; I loved the process.  I went on Facebook and posted a few pictures of some of the autumn-related projects I had been working on around the house.  People responded and I was proud, but not satisfied.  So began my quick descent into craft addiction!

I loved playing with the yarn and watching the wreath take shape.  I had no idea what I was doing but I didn't care.

I especially loved the paper towel flowers... I found the tutorial for them here.

And here we are today; it has been almost 5 months since The Creative Imperative was born.  I have found blogging to be a better venue for sharing projects than annoying my Facebook friends with every little thing I do around the house.

Anyway, thank YOU!  Thank you for reading and for encouraging and for inspiring me.  It's YOU who have helped to make this journey so much fun!

God bless you and keep on craftin'.
