Wire Words



Emily from Jones Design Company shared how to make these wired words and I was so excited to give it a try!  I think they are so cute to use to decorate a package, attach to a thank you card or just use on a frame!

{I'm giving this candle and wired word "Home" as a house warming gift to a friend}

{Tell a friend you are thankful for them}
{On a frame...isn't my nephew so cute}
{Mother's Day card to my mom}
Directions:

Step 1: Type words out with a cursive font. I used a cursive standard font and printed them out. 

 Step two: Bend wire like you are writing in cursive. I bought my wire at Michaels in the jewelry section.
The wire I used
Step 3: Bend wire into a word and cut wire with scissors when done!
My first word

Have some fun with your words and I'm excited to pass mine out to my friends and family!

Thank you Emily for being so creative!

I had to make a few requests for the boys!

A Puppy Dog for Landon

Turquoise Chevron Curtains


The prefect color and pattern
Here they are in black and white
Here they are in a smaller yellow color
I'm on the search for Turquoise Chevron Curtains for my living room. Currently we have turquoise sheers hanging up which I love but would love a solid panel for more privacy. We used to have solid turquoise curtains up from Restoration Hardware until my two year old Landon spilled his blackberry/strawberry smoothie on them and destroyed them. I found these gorgeous curtains on Etsy and the shop owner lives in the O.C. (Orange County) and I knew it was meant to be! (We moved to Colorado two years ago from Orange County) Her shop is called The Little Home. She also has great pillows:
set of two $23
$23.00 for one
set of two $58
$13.00 for one
I'm saving up for the 50''x84'' pair...my birthday is right around the corner:)
♥ Additional Lengths Available: 
50" x 84" - $150.00 (pair)
50" x 96" - $165.00 (pair)
50" x 108" - $180.00 (pair)
*If your size desired is not listed please just convo me*

Thank you This LIttle House for making these amazing curtains!
