March wreath by Lish

Our most recent wreath was made out of old 7″s by the illustrious Lish from Handmade Detroit.

Handmade Detroit is a “loose collective of people who like to make stuff” that organizes the Detroit Urban Craft Fair (which just opened submissions for the August show), Sunday Crafternoon in Ferndale, and the Handmade Detroit Holiday Market. They’re awesomely busy, and busily awesome.

But that didn’t prevent the storm last week from blowing Lish’s beautiful wreath off of the nail it was hanging on and smashing it to pieces on the concrete underneath. I should’ve fastened it better. I’m so sorry, Lish. You worked hard on it. Everyone really liked it for the few days that it was up, I swear.

And I know this isn’t the best time to ask, but if anyone else out there wants to make a wreath for our house, please write to timothy AT bluishbarn DOT COM or just drop it off anonymously on our front porch. I promise we’ll hang it with extra care.
