Country Crafts

Hello again!

Well that was a busy few weeks, sorry for the lack of blog posts but at this festive time of year we all know how hectic it can get! 

Anyone Agree?


Anyway, as some of you may know my side line business is a small arts and crafts enterprise called Pure Inspyration, and last Sunday we attended our last craft fair before Christmas! I try to theme my stall on what I feel is appropriate for the event and as this was a Christmas fair tied in with my country loving ways I wanted to bring nature to Christmas decorations. 



Fall Wreath by Pure Inspyration 


This fabric fall wreath is just stunning, with hand crafted paper flowers alongside holly leaf balls, pine cones and beautiful brown flowers. The joy in making a product like this is it's versatility, not only can you thread some fairy lights through it for Christmas you can hang it on your door through the fall and summer as well. A wreath for any season! Each strip of coloured organza is hand tied in a bow to create the base which demonstrates how the rustic outdoors can create a stunning interior or exterior decoration. 


Pine Cone Wreath by Pure Inspyration 




After having much success from my range of fabric wreaths from blue sea side ones to the fall one above, I decided to venture into completely natural materials. With the glue gun at the ready and armed with pine cones, nuts and cinnamon sticks I set to making this original pine cone wreath which I'm proud to say sold within 5 minutes on Sunday *big grins*. The rustic colours and natural feel means it fits into any home from old fashioned farm houses to modern barn conversions. 


If you would like one of my wreaths or for me to make one bespoke to a design you have, please feel free to just ask. Prices vary depending on size and what you would like on it. Also feel free to check out Pure Inspyration on Facebook for more product photographs and items for sale. 

Anyhow, back to making... and nursing the glue gun burn I just gained...
