“Beautiful wreath”

This heart wreath was given to my husband when work challenges were especially difficult. The darling worry dolls were given their job as my husband smiled and recognized his fretting. The wreath is beautifully detailed, a sweet reminder to breathe deeply and enjoy the ride.

“Headband”

I thought this was a very cute headband, especially to wear on hats when you go on a cruise, or just to the beach. Great job.
