Burlap Apples & Display Bowl
I love the rustic touch burlap brings to our home. Creating seasonal burlap accents is a challenge I enthusiastically undertake and when I saw this bright right burlap from BurlapFabric.com - I knew just what I wanted to make!

Faux Succulent Wreath
Real succulents are amazing, and since they need little care and thrive in hot and dry areas, they are awesome for making wreaths, planting in unexpected containers, etc., but this wreath can also be taken inside and used throughout the winter months without worrying about watering, temperature fluctuations, etc. Right now the chain craft stores have awesome faux succulents available, so make your wreath now, or watch for those clearance sales at the end of the season and make yourself one for next spring & summer!

Smoothfoam Ruled Wreaths
This month Designer Crafts Connection members are hopping with
Smoothfoam, a US manufacturing company, is family owned and was the first to introduce their dense, craft foam products to the craft industry. Its smooth, foam surface is ideal for a wide variety of crafts, home décor and mixed media projects. You can paint it without prepping, pin it, sand it, rubber stamp on it, cut it and a whole lot more. Earlier this year at the trade show in Anaheim, Smoothfoam introduced their "Ruled Wreaths" to the Craft and Hobby industry. Available in 5 sizes, 8", 10", 12", 14" and 16", the surface of these wreaths has markings, dividing the ring into 12 equal sections. This makes them SO easy for designers to work with - no measuring required! Imagine what you could do!
Each of the following designers received ruled wreaths. See where their creativity led them then check back and let us know in the comments section HERE which project inspired you to be creative and how you would use a ruled wreath! A winner will be selected at random to receive their own set of "Ruled Wreaths"... Don't forget to check back here on June 1st to see if it was you!
