Meet Amanda Taylor!
Amanda first started creating her wreaths last year.
"My husband lost his job of 10 years, and I wanted a pretty wreath for my front door. As I was going through a Pottery Barn magazine I saw some wreath's that were around 80-150 bucks... (did not have the money for that at all). So, with my sister Wendy's help I created my own. Everyone loved it and begged for me to make them and sell. So I did. Not only did I have the very wreath I couldn't afford hanging on my door but I also funded an entire Christmas with the sales. At a time when we needed it most! Since then I have branched out a bit, I create from what I like...if I think it would be cute for me, then I try my best to make it. I like to add my own touch to things. Sometimes I will think I am finished with something, and then later go back and add a new touch that I just didn't think about before."
Keep a look out for the very talented Amanda Taylor. One of her wreaths will be featured in the winter edition of a national magazine called Phyllis Hoffman CELEBRATE!
"I am so excited, they contacted me this month for the photo shoot!"
