Vintage Chic Decor

June 18, 2013 by Holly Gagnon 7 Comments

Welcome to the 2nd Day of the Craftwork Cards USA & UK Designer’s Blog Hop.

As you go throughout this Blog Hop you’ll actually be “hopping back & forth across the pond” since the USA & UK designers are hopping together each day.   What a cheap and easy way to travel too!  The USA design team were sent Craftwork Cards Create a Wreath Kits to design with.  This was fun project for the team since we only design with their cute CANDi Lines.

I was sent a cute lil’ Vintage Chic Wreath Kit to play with and this is what I came up with,  a little vintage inspired, shabby chic gift bag purse and candle decor.

Craftwork Cards CANDi Wreath Kits- Vintage Decor

Each Create a Wreath Kit makes 2 wreaths.  I followed the directions on how to assemble one of wreaths in the kit and then chose to use a flower from the other set to embellish a little purse.    The Create a Wreath Kits come in 6 varieties and since everything is pre-cut the kits are easy to assemble and basically the creativity is all up to you.

I really like the blue and brown colors in one of the Vintage Chic sets so I decided to turn that one into a simple and easy decorative candle holder.

For the other set in the Vintage Chic Kit,  I assembled together one of the bigger flowers to embellished this Lori Whitlock  Purse cut file and added some more Coffee Bean CANDi‘s on to the flower and the purse.

The creativity with these wreaths kits are totally up to you and hopefully you’ll be inspired  to give them a try as you hop along the way.
