Amanda from Wreath 'N' Around
1. How long have you been creating and how did you get started?
I make wreaths, centerpieces, garlands, sympathy florals any other faux floral work. Been doing this since 2016 and it all started cause I wanted a fall mailbox topper and couldn’t find one anywhere….. so I had to get creative! Now…… here I am.
2. What is/are your favorite Surebonder product(s):
My favorite Surebonder product is the glue skillet.
Amanda loves our adjustable temperature glue skillet and we know you will too. This glue pot as many call it makes floral crafting so much easier. Simply dip your materials into the heated glue and stick them onto your project! It will change they way you create floral arrangements, door swags and more... | |
