you know you're a Craftaholics when...

 you finish this wreath while in labor trying to get your mind off contractions.... and then give birth to your second son a few hours later. yep, i have a problem. ok, an obsession {that's why i'm here...} but hey, it worked! hot gluing small candy corns onto a wreath sure does get your mind off contractions!! lol
 i know i'll always remember this fall wreath. as in seared-in-my-memory as the craft i had to finish before my water broke! aww, the memories we make while crafting.
happy {fall} crafting! :)

  11. That is hilarious! I made a delicious pasta salad while I was in labor with my second child. I was convinced that they would stop my labor and send me home that night from the hospital and we needed lunch for the next day :) It didn't go that way...and we never got to eat the pasta salad...sad...
