Purplicious Birthday Balloon Wreath…

I had a custom order from my Etsy shop to create a purple balloon wreath for a special Purplicious Birthday Party!!

I used 12 inch balloons that were plain purple mixed with purple and white polka dot.  I added white and purple corkscrew pipe cleaners to finish it up—and I love the way it turned out!!  I am a bit partial since purple is my favorite color too!

I had a request from a friend to start teaching sewing classes for boys.  We had our first class already and I LOVED IT!!
I can’t believe it was just a year ago that I happened upon bartering sewing lessons for eggs from a friend—I have had so much fun teaching and watching kids feel the joy of creating something on their own!!
My tie class is this Saturday, March 15th, 2014 from 2:30-4:30pm, for $15
Supplies needed:
  • A good pair of sewing scissors
  • 1/2 yard 100% cotton fabric
  • 1 package of 1/2 inch elastic
