Hi, I’m Maggie. My husband (Legh) and I own re-souL.   I like to “muse” about things that inspire me.  Especially on Mondays.

As I said a couple of weeks ago, I was a little late on the store holiday decor.  I was going to do something simple this year, but was inspired by a diy I saw on Pinterest. I decided to give it a try.  After waiting for  hundreds of paper straws to be delivered, two forms and lots of hot glue,  I was ready to painstakingly put them together.  A few hours of patience and a couple of burnt fingertips later, we had our giant star burst wreaths for the windows! I really like the way they turned out in our re-souL colors of orange, aqua and white.

Here are a few other diy wreaths I had come across my computer screen. I like them all.  Maybe next year?
