D.I.Y:Fall flower crown

I know that there is about a million and one flower crowns out there but they are so fun to make. So here is my take on making a fall flower crown.


1. Cut two pieces of felt to hold your flowers on. I made it the length of my head. You can make it rap around your head. What ever floats your boat.



2. Remove flowers off the steams. They should look something like this.



3. Remove plastic part and glue, slide the piece back on.



4. Cut stem off, so that it sit right.





5.One of my flowers was a lot bigger and if would have cut it, it would have unraveled. So I cut my felt and glued down my flower on both sides.



6. Glue all your flowers on.



7. Glue wire on to the felt. I used the wire so that it is supported



8.Glue a piece of ribbon on each side.



9. Glue your second piece of felt so that everything is hidden.


Now go and sport your fall flower crown.  I have been wearing my and dreaming and praying for a bit of cooler wearth so that it will be fall for sure heehee. This 100 degree weather is just not cutting it so I have to trick my mind with lots of flower crowns and fall colors.

In the land of crafting

Lately my crafting table looks as though a hurricane or even a toddler came and destroyed everything.  It is a tad bit good because it means I have been a messy little bee, not picking up after myself well I craft. These days all I want to do is create something new which feels good. I feel like myself again. Not really caring if I am "doing things right" but just living as if I can accomplish pretty much anything.

I have finally been pushing myself to finish up things for my shop and stop putting things off. So I picked a deadline so it speeds me along and I'm not dragging it on till death. All is well in the land of crafting! I hope yours is too.

note the crazy cat tripping out on the paint brushes heehee!

Back to the Basics

I have had this blog for about a year going on two but I never really did anything with it because I was never satisfied with it or who I was.  I tried so hard to be a "blogger" and lost my motives and inspiration as for why I started blogging.

My reason for starting Flies in a Peach Can was because I was on home-studies and I wanted to connect with creative people like me. I wanted to create things and share. Most of all it was going to be a place were I could be myself and not feel weird.

In the end I did. Not because I was weird and super different but because I was trying to do thing like most people and felt like I had to, to get friends.  I've learned that we are all different, and it might be in the smallest way but when we try to do the same things as other people we began to sell ourselves short. And I am really tired of doing that.

My passion for who I am and what I love doing is back and really seeing that its okay to be myself. I don't want to crave people gawwing at my stuff or who I am. I just want to live an amazing and beautiful life, throw the mistakes and doubts and always stay myself.

This weekend marked a great revelation in my life, and it had me think quite a bit. On Sunday I try to delete my previous post because I wanted to start "new" with a clean slate and all that jazz. A few post into it I stopped myself feeling as though I was erasing a piece of me. It sound really lame, but this thing that I had put my blood, sweat and tears into hurt when I tried to start new and not look back at my mistakes. I then start thinking my mistakes show me what I have become despite all the craziness. So here I am going back to the basics and loving every minute of my unscheduled life!

Quote me happy

Lately  I have really been obsessed with quotes of all cheesy sizes and what not.  So when I get down I think of all these corny quotes to keep me running and stop being scared of what ever is in my way.  This past couple of weeks has not been any different. So in my crafting time all these came up and a bit of courage to run again also.
