New Wreaths @ Simple Joys Paperie

I was so excited when I found a Norse-English dictionary a while back!

I knew exactly what I'd do with it ~ make a wreath!

This one is inspired by the Jeanne D'Arc Living magazines and all of the beautiful blogs that show light and airy Scandinavian decor. It's my first square wreath:

This one is made from an antique book called The Masquerader.

I thought it would be perfect for Halloween:

I have a few more wreaths to finish up and get listed on etsy. I also have a couple more that need their center medallions ~ these were special orders ~ and I got a bit behind while feeling under the weather and helping my youngest get his second year of college sorted out ~ among a few other things going on.

You may read more about the wreaths and see more photos at

I also have a few sets of pumpkins and two cats that need to be finished...

where, oh where, do the hours go?
