New Wreaths for 2014

Wow, I can't believe it's August already!

While I haven't been crafting a lot of wreaths this summer, I have been vintage ornament shopping!!

My coffers are bursting now with vintage christmas goodies just waiting to be turned into your new 

wreaths :->

Today I have added 5 new ones to my store and my store has a new look too.

These are just a preview of more to come.

WOW! What a Shell

The focal shell in this wreath is so incredibly gorgeous.

I just had to build a wreath around it, and it had to be a pink one of course.

This wreath is in the shop today.

Lots of Sea Shells, Lots of Shiny Brites

Need a pretty wreath to welcome spring?

I've got lots of choices in the shop today.

Wreaths for That Beachy Look

I've been having fun blasting through my extensive shell collection, combining them with my favorite thing, old Shiny Brites of course.

I think I will hit the beach this weekend and see if I can find some little bits of driftwood to include in future wreaths.

I think the turquoise/aqua, gold and silver color combination is classic beach colors.

But pink looks nice too.

First Wreaths for 2014

I'm starting the 2014 wreath season with a bang!

Five new wreaths and of course LOTS more to come, all year long.

 

Beat the holiday rush, these wreaths are available now right here.

Under Construction

This wreath is a big one, at 20" in diameter.

Those vintage pink/blue shiny brites are the big ones measuring 3" in diameter.

It's going to take a massive amount of ornaments to fill this bad boy out.

It's A Wreath GiveAway!!

Yes, you heard correctly!  It's a GeorgiaPeachez Wreath giveaway.

My friend Pam over at the ever fabulous blog Retro Renovation is giving away this wreath to one of her readers.

Pam has purchased this wreath that I crafted especially for her retro loving fans and everyone has a chance to win it.

Wreath Dining

This time of year we don't do much formal dining.

The only dining happening in here is on wreaths.

There are four new wreaths in the shop today.

New Wreaths Tomorrow

I have been working on new wreaths for the coming holidays. 

If you have seen my Flickr page, then you have seen some of what I have been working on.

This season I happy to announce a new partnership between GeorgiaPeachez Wreaths and One Kings Lane.

The first offering of 8 wreaths will be tomorrow at 11am EDT.
The wreaths will be part of their Deck the Halls
campaign in their Vintage and Market Finds section.

I am very honored that they selected me to be a partner for this holiday season.

Lots of Cheer

Halloween?? What's that?

It's all about the Christmas around here.

Going for the Gold

Gold, silver and a Made in Japan butterfly.

Pretty perfect.

Shop here.

Frohliche Weihnachten - That's Merry Christmas!!

Another Wreath Feature!!

Another of my wreaths has appeared in a Romantic Homes publication!

 This publication by Romantic Homes is on the newstand now.  I found my copy at Target today.

 Last year, one of my wreaths was on the cover of Romantic Homes magazine.  I had actually sent two wreaths to California to be photographed and this is that second wreath on page 16 of the Vintage Holiday Christmas magazine.

I had no idea, I was quite surprised standing there in Target flipping through this magazine!!

Well, I have gathered together so many vintage christmas goodies and I am working on getting as many wreaths to my store as possible so that everyone can have one this year.

Right now I have four wreaths in the shop with many more to come.

Exquisitness

It doesn't get any better than this.

April's Gold!!

Gold and silver is a combo that always works!

Available in the store now.

What's Pink, Pink and More Pink??

This new wreath!!

In the shop today.

Choices

These 3 wreaths are in the store and available.

Vintage Wreaths are Shaping Up

I've made a square wreath and a rectangular wreath for my own collection.

This is the first square wreath that I have made for the store.

This wreath is 17" square and makes quite the statement.

This One's For ME

I've made hundreds of wreaths over the last few years, and passed each one along to it's new home.

The wreaths that I made and have in my own personal collection were made many years ago.  

This season I made a buying trip to one of my favorite places on this earth, Suzanna's Antiques.

I brought home many wonderful ornaments to use in my wreaths, and I also found this cutie.

 This guy is an impressive 10 inches high, even in his tucked posture.  He still maintains his Made in Japan label and he is stuffed with excelsior.

Love the avocado green burlap.  Love at first sight actually.

I brought him home, knowing that he would become the focal piece of a new wreath, for the GeorgiaPeachez  family collection.

I've been saving and setting aside many wonderful 70's kitschy ornaments just for a future and personal wreath project.

He is a happy elf with his new home.  

You can see that my personal taste  

in vintage Christmas really skews to the wacky side.
