Nancy,
Love this series of videos. It is go generous to give of your time and talent. I’ve done 3 bird house wreaths and can’t wait to see how you attach them. I’ve used pipe cleaners and mushrooms and lots of moss. I’m sure you way will be an eye opener.
Thanks again…Kitty
Thanks Kitty for taking time to send me this note. All of the feedback from you ladies means so much to me — makes it all worthwhile.
Smiles… Nancy
Nancy, I have been making wreath for several years, but love adding the honeysuckle vine and the airy aspect …..they are just beautiful and I’ve enjoyed reading about you. I have never sold any of my wreaths,, just given them to friends and family but I am considering putting a couple in our hardware store to sell. I”m nervous , I think they look good, my girls do also but fearful about pricing . I”m so glad I found your page! Thanks for the inspiration….Harriette
Hi Harriette,
Thank you so much for your comment. I am thrilled that you have been enjoying my wreaths and my instructions.
I know that starting to sell your creations may be a little scary, but, I have every confidence in you! I am sure that with your love of wreath-making and the fact that you have already been practicing will make this transition much easier. And, knowing that friends and family are enjoying them already is a big plus!
I am so happy you found my page also! And I wish you the best of luck in selling your wreaths.
And… you are so very welcome! That is why I do what I do…

God Bless… Nancy

I consider myself a self-taught designer also and I love the airy, natural look. Thank you for sharing your tips with me. I give most of my wreaths away as gifts but I am considering selling now. You have been a great inspiration!
Thank you so very much Carol. I am so happy to be able to share with you and all of my customers. You should certainly consider selling them! That is a great source of extra income!
Have a great day! Smiles… Nancy
You are very welcome Carol! It’s time to stop giving away your wreaths, and start selling them now.
Let me know how it goes, and thanks for the note! Nancy

Thanks Nancy for the free videos. I look forward to the next one. I bought your first Secret Vendor List and would love to have the new one but have recently retired and can’t get one yet. I have been selling my wreaths at craft shows and in my small Beauty Salon but would like to have a web site. That’s another venture that you can probably help me with. Thanks again. Everything you do is beautiful.
Sue, did you know that once you purchase the Secret Vendor List, you can get updates free? You needed to fill in your name and email on the download page. If you can’t find that, just look for where you paid for it in PayPal, and I’ll be happy to send you the newest one!
You’re very welcome! Smiles… Nancy
You are very welcome Sue! Did you ever send your info so you can get the updated version of Secret Vendor List? Just let me know!
Smiles… Nancy
