it's here! and a giveaway

well, the wait is finally over. 'FOLK Issue 2: Christmas!' is here and little ol' me is a part of it's amazing pages!!!!

i still am finding it hard to believe, but i guess it has to be true as i'm holding copies in my hands! and not only am i on one page of the magazine, i'm actually on several pages! somebody pinch me.

in this issue i have two columns. the first is called 'inspired by'. This issue focuses on burlap.

This particular column instructs you on how to make these amazing trees and wreath out of burlap. Pretty spectacular, right!?

i spent hours and hours creating this collection of burlap-wonderfulness and i couldn't be happier with the results.

they are now proudly displayed in my gift shoppe for all to see!

the second column, Sweet Endings, gives a tutorial on how to make the 'old fashion' dried apple wreaths and cinnamon applesauce ornaments.

my method of displaying these creations gave them a fresh new life...

...and a christmas project that can be cherished for years to come!

pretty stuff, right!? they also smell ah-mazing!

you'll also find a recipe for these delicious cookies....

cream wafters! my favorite.

plus, tons and tons and tons of other inspiring holiday projects, recipes and stories. i was impressed with the first issue of FOLK but this issue truly takes the cake! and at 160 pages long it will keep you inspired for a while.

issues can still be found through small retailers listed here (my gift shoppe included in that list).

and in celebration of this excitement i decided to give away FIVE copies of the 'Christmas! Issue' to the always wonderful and super kind readers of inspired by charm! i wouldn't be in this magazine without your kind words and constant support!
