Today I am busy filling a couple orders for customers and wanted to share them with you. These paper cone wreaths have been very popular at the local shop I stock! It's a nice change from the repetitive Christmas and Hanukkah wreaths when I get a custom order. First is a paper wreath for a child's room. I love this idea for a vintage baby … [Read more...]
