Exciting News!!!

Photo credit: Woman's Day Magazine

I'm so happy I can finally share some exciting news with you!  My seashell wreath tutorial is going to be in the August issue of Woman's Day Magazine!!!  Somehow they found my tutorial on my blog and contacted me about putting it the magazine! 

 They made their own version of it (which is so beautiful) and I got credit and also got my blog mentioned in the article too!  

The magazine won't be out until July but you can see it on their website now.  
Just click here: Woman's Day Magazine Seashell Wreath Project.
