Hey!

I’m so happy you replied back so quickly. I was worried that you might have forgotten me! BTW – HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! Very, very exciting! I hope you had a lovely day with your family and friends. I can’t believe I messaged you yesterday and didn’t even realize it!

I’ve got to catch up with you! I hit my year mark in Dallas this past August, and Jeff and I got married up in NY in July. I hated Dallas at first because of the heat and highways, but I’ve really grown to like it a lot more. Where are you living, when did you get married…? Do you have a fun job too or just focusing on Etsy and the blog? It sounds like things are going really well for you!

I did love this idea! My friend’s birthday is in late February, so I am going to start early and hang it on her door for a surprise. I will certainly post a pic, AND thank you so much for the awesome idea! ALSO, my good friend in Dallas runs a really great fashion blog. Check it out for inspiration!

Heidi! Its so great to hear from you! I just wrote the longest comment and for some reason it didn’t post so if you get this twice, you know why 🙂

I love Dallas! My husband and I actually met there. Its the city of love 🙂 Are you liking it?

The wreath was a huge hit with my daughter. Every time we drive up to the house she says “Look it my birthday!” I think kids just love anything to do with balloons in general. I haven’t taken it down yet so Im not sure how it will store, but Im just gonna put it in a box in the garage. Think it should be good. The pins I used were metal sewing pins. They are just the straight ones with a flat head on top. The blog I saw it on used floral pins but Michaels was sold out of them. The sewing ones worked great though.

What a fun idea for a present! Send me a pic of the finished project!! So great to hear from you!

I hope all is well! I can’t believe we’re both “all grown up and married now!” ha! I am living in Dallas and working as a middle school English teacher.

I saw your blog on FB, and lately I have really been getting into blogs AND pinterest. I LOVE this balloon wreath idea and plan to make it for my friend’s upcoming birthday. Questions – Was it a big hit with your daughter? Do you think it will store well? What exact type of pins did you use?

A big congrats to you for starting your very own blog!
