Soooooooooo. Here’s a break for your wallet and a gift from us to you. April from April Gets Crafty is giving away a beautiful (handmade) winter pearl wreath as featured in her etsy shop. April is super talented and she is delighted to give this away! Here’s a note from April herself. ‘I am a young wife and mother who loves to get crafty 😉 I have used painting, jewelry making and making crafts as creative outlets for years. I truly enjoy making things “just because”. It is the best feeling in the world when something you’ve made with your own hands brings happiness to someone else. Sometimes my muse is a material, sometimes a photo I ‘ve seen, a story I’ve read or even something as simple as a leaf on the ground. Recently, the biggest inspiration behind my work and my daily life, is my son Noah. Nothing is more inspiring than love. This has encouraged me to open “April Gets Crafty” this December. Thank you for the support ‘

In case you haven’t noticed, I have recently been MIA. Curtis & I made the big move from Richmond, VA -> Stony Creek, VA last Friday and we do not have internet quite yet. Thankfully, a friend of ours let us borrow their internet card for the night but it is temporary. We will *hopefully* have internet December 14 and until then we are counting down the days. I am answering emails/facebook messages as quickly as I can on my iphone but responses are limited. Oh hey, want to see some of our Christmas decorations? Okay!

ps. this album is extraordinary. I remember someone on facebook stating that zooey’s voice was made for Christmas music…I couldn’t agree with you more! are you sick of these pretty people yet? good. cause there’s a part III coming. that involves pink spray roses, a pretty ballerina & her handsome partner and lots of sunlight charm. (that was my idea of a ‘come back for more, y’all!’ ploy) Hey, if you flew to Boston to meet such lovely photographic folks, you’d take a gazillion photos too. that’s right, a gazillion.

Beautiful!! Beyond words
My favorite item from April’s shop is the Winter Felt Pearl Wreath. Not because it’s the giveaway item, but because I love love love the colors and the warm feeling I get when I look at it! It is the perfect winter wreath. Not to mention, pearls are my weakness 😉

Hi this is Meghan Pyle and I absoutely adore the Indoor Decorative Christmas Holiday Wreath… 1) because of the colors red & white, 2)because of the originality of the wreath itself most of the ones I have seen have felt flowers… 3) the cranberry twig adds character! There is my 2cents:) Merry Christmas!
Everything looks great, but my favorite is the Metalic Moonlight painted canvas. I’m planning my wedding for next fall right now and am using love birds throughout the decor. I’m rather fond of them at the moment
-Megan
I have to pick ONE fav?! Well- my favorite on the website now is the “love birds” painting. I have am buying it for my husband’s grandma because she is obsessed with blue birds. I also recently bought gifts for my mother in law, husband’s grandma, and my sister is law and always bought 5 or 6 things for myself. Ok so I love everything April has made. I’d like to be her walking billboard!

My favorite item in the etsy shop in the double stranded pearl bracelet. It is my favorite because I’m getting married very soon and the pearl white reminds me of my wedding dress. The fact that it’s two strands of pearls reminds me of my fiance and myself and then it’s a joint enclosure which makes me think about how we are going to be joint very soon.

P.S.~ April the wreath is beautiful. Very well done!
I love the wreath shown in this blog!! Everything is so amazing in her shop…. she is truly talented =) It was hard to pick a fav, but the winter felt pearl wreath is my pick!!!
My favorite item in her shop is the yellow purple polka dot dog collar.
I like it because I have become obsessed with yellow and am in love with my dog… an all white Lhasa with apricot ears. She would look super duper cute in this! <3
Oh my… I’m going to have to go with the winter pearl wreath. Why? Because I LOOOOOOVE Grey. Because my house is grey. Because my front door is lonely and it neeeeeds a gorgeous grey wreath to make it pretty and keep it company. Nicely done, April!! Fun mix of stuff, you multi-talented-rockstar, you!
I like the red heart door wreath because it’d look awesome on my front door during Feb. when everything else looks so dreary.
I adore the yellow purple polka dot dog collar because it’s so cute and has a bow, and i’m obsessed with bows.
oh me, oh my!! I have to pick just ONE thing that’s my favorite? I love the blue and black bead necklace on page 2, the pink double strand on page 2 and lots more….why? because they are so pretty! (and unique). (and I like April because I know how sweet she is). If I have to pick just one, I would say the blue and black necklace…but I am indecisive at best. Thank you!

My favorite item is the Indoor Decorative Christmas Holiday Wreath! It is absolutely beautiful! I love it because it looks very girly and I love all things girly and its christmas decor and Christmas is my favorite holiday!
My favorite item is the Shades of Purple Chandelier Earrings. I like the item because I can picture myself wearing/buying them. Purple is my favorite color and these earrings are my style.
I love everything on her site, but the zebra jewelry is super cute, I love the paintings, too…and all of the wreaths are just beautiful! April you are a very crafty girl!!! Love your work!!!
oh, why I like the items, because they are all beautiful! They are also very reasonably priced..so after Christmas, I plan to do shopping for myself on her site!
I love the Valentine Ruffled Heart!
…and I love it because the color is amaaazing and it just looks so happy and frilly
i have two favs the wreath above is sooo beautiful…I saw something simillar to this the other day and liked it but this one is way prettier than the other one…My other fav is the painting of the birds on the tree. I like it because I like birds and I love the colors in it:)
i lllloooove the christmas holiday wreath and the one that is to give away!!! the christmas on i love be i love the a splash of red anywhere!!! red jsut stands for so much love!warmes!passion!
the white pearl wreath is so pretty because it has that icy winter feeling to it!
it is a tuff decission because all thingsthe april makes are beautiful!!!
i wish everybody a very merry christmas!!!
I adore the wreaths, but my favorite item is the vintage inspired champagne earrings. They are pretty, classic, and because they are such a soft neutral, they can “romance” any outfit. The bronze accents also add a nice “old world” touch.
I love all of her wreaths, but I think my favorite is the one you’ve featured here in your blog! Beautiful!
Oh, and as for why I love that one best: for one, I am obsessed with twine wreaths, but I also love the subtle combination of colors she chose for the felt accent.
I love the metalic moonlight painting, it is beautiful and I love art, a wonderful painting to add to anyones home!:)
I really can’t choose just one so I’ll narrow it down to my top 3! I absolutely love the yellow necklace because it is super cute and will go with everything I own (so I’m telling myself!). The cream and pearl wreath is perfect not only because it matches my Christmas decorations but because it looks sophisticated and can stay up all year. Lastly, the spooky love birds painting is my all time fave! I like the colors and it makes me smile every time I see it.
