An invitation to contribute to P. Allen Smith's e-Magazine "Naturally".

Naturally, I was thrilled.

Come on in and I'll tell you the rest...

Of course I said yes immediately - then thought...YIKES this wreath needs to be fabulous!!!

To me feathers & fabulous not only start with the same letter, they are inextricably linked.  I mean really, when are feathers not fabulous? Think Peacock...

So with feathers on my mind and the instructions to make the wreath "simple and natural".  

Simple - natural and fabulous ~ definitely feathers!

So I set out and found some feathers HERE...

Then dove into my stash for some of THIS...

Bought two of THESE - two is the key,

...and began to design this "simple, natural" and fabulous wreath.

The feathers became feather flowers & needed a center.  Craspedia or drum stick flower answered the call.
