paint it black



several months ago,
the very talented michael fretz
{the stepfatherinlaw}
painted the exterior of my home.

he painted the door black as well & i {loves} it.
but it's been [needing] a happy little wreath since i took christmas down.

i adore houndstooth.
i don't care if it's already out of style/if it goes out of style...
cause it makes me happy.

i also like simple.
i am a minimalist at heart,
{though i'm also extremely ADD with my taste}
so sometimes i like over-the-top, too.
*i was in a simple mood when i made this...
can you tell? ;)

supplies for this insanely easy craft project-
purchased at the greatest store ever,
ETC
[formerly known as scrapbooks etc.]
did you hear about the name change?
ETC stands for EVERY THING CRAFT...
{because}
in addition to being paper craft heaven,
we also carry the yummiest fabric,
to die for homemade gifts
& other ridiculously awesome crafting supplies.
still a scrapbook store, just better!

have i mentioned how much i love my job?
*that's right, i have. :)

k, loveyou, bye.

My first thought was "Who died!?" Because in the old days people hung black wreaths on their doors when a loved one died.

Funny that it was something of MY GRANDMA'S generation and that was my first though!

I think it's cute though. And I'm glad no one died. LOL!
