Sheesh! Who learned y'all so well in how to do a great looking fake wreath? It's like you've all been trained by a professional P.O.O.P.I.E. or something. Thank you so much for your thoughtful responses--I read them all and laughed and cried and immediately took down the wreath that looked like spring, summer and fall threw up on it.
My wreath got a makeover and I am now happier-- I'll show it to you tomorrow when we have a spur of the moment Mr. Linky party so all of us P.O.O.P.I.E.S can share our good, bad and ugly fake plants and flowers.
As usual, there are really no rules. Just make sure you link to the actual post about your fakes and I would be forever grateful if you linked back to this post so other people know what you are doing and why you are using the word poopie so freely. If I had it together I would have a cute little button for you to add to your blog for this. I just cannot imagine what a button P.O.O.P.I.E would look like.
Maybe you need advice from all of these wise and talented birds or maybe you have a thing or two to teach us! I cannot wait to see what you come up with!
POOPIES Unite!

No way am I first! Can't wait to see your madeover wreath. I'm sure it's absotootly fabooooolous!
So will your Mr. Linky be called a Poopie Party?
I'm having a fun giveaway so stop by!

Sorry I am late, but I think the problem with the wreath is that it is too green. I am looking forward to your unveiling.
I can't wait to see your made-over wreath!!
I bet that wreath will look amazing! Looking forward to taking a peek!
Have a good one!

Ha, I can't wait to see the new wreath! Maybe you should call it a Poopie Nest Fest?
woohoo! Can't wait to see what you came up with.
Ooo...looking forward to pics of your wreath! (and of course, the poopie party!)
Nothing like friends to tell you your other wreath "stunk"! I'm sure the newly made over wreath will be deserving of a prominent place for fall! I can't wait to see it.
This Mom of three boys would display her P.O.O.P.I.E button with pride. I'm impervious to potty jokes. :)
I can't wait to see your reworked wreath.
Mercy, Nester. People were a little rough on you yesterday, weren't they?! Are we only as good as our latest project (or post)? Nestees, let's give the "big bird" a little grace! :-)
Nothing like a big 'ol slap in the POOPIE face, huh!!!
Wow...we all were so opinionated, weren't we?
Can't WAIT to see the newest Nester concoction, and hurry up and make a POOPIE BUTTON...I already have the IDHTBPTBB Button in my own blog, so I just gotta have me a POOPIE Button...maybe with some FAKE IVY on it??? LOL!
You're great, no matter what we think, at times!
I stumbled onto your blog and now I totally stock it. Someday I'll be cool enough to post the first comment. :) I LOVE your design style. You inspired me to redo my living room... I'm going to add pictures to my blog tonight because I'm SO PROUD of it! Thank you Thank you Thank you! My pile of twigs and mud is now a nest!
ok... that last comment was me. I was signed in under the wrong name. Shows you what a blogging new-be I am. :)
Yay! I am gonna link up! I have a wreath that I just purchased and well, you will see...
Love your blog!
Nester,
I liked the wreath. I thought it was all over fun. I am not sure I have seen anything of yours that wasn't beautiful. So you go girl! M
looking forward to seeing everyone Poopie projects!
After the way these nice ladies responded to your wreath, do I dare put up my really bad fakes? Well, I guess I have to toughen up and pull myself up by the bootstraps because this one will be all about people laughing at me, not with me. Just tellin' ya like it is.
I think the ladies are a little sour after having just thrown out all their fake! Too funny. :)
Nester: Just stumbled across your blog 2 days ago and girl, we are kindred spirits! If you're ever in Austin, we have to hang out! I'm in no way affiliated with this, but you absolutely, positively have to put your adorable garlands and tassels in one of my favorite little stores here! They would fit right in and sell like hotcakes! Its called Homespun Cottage and I can just see those garlands adorning one of their trees at Christmas right now! I really don't work there, or anything - they just get alot of my cash! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your blog! Later!
Haven't you ever sung the song "Every party has a poopie, er I mean pooper, that's why we invited you?" One of the all time greats. I still think we need a T shirt...Mimi
Nester ~ I love your blog! Visit you daily! After reading your post yesterday about the PRETTY wreath and all of the honest answers...I'm so nervous about what is hangin on my front door! I think I may have neighbors driving by laughing! I think you do a great job! I would love to have just a little of your talent!
You know what I think? You are fun! You have made decorating fun for me again! I was starting to get caught up in all the rules and regulations of decorating and then there you were! Maybe for all of us, maturity is when we start decorating for ourselves and families and not for everyone else! Three cheers for the nester! Hip-hip-hooray!
I think you make the POOPIE button with a VERY shiny green IVY background with some perfectly round BERRIES spelling out POOPIE
LOL
I have got to start taking some pictures!
Looking forward to joining the fun.
Maureen
I'm sure your wreath looks great! Can't wait to see it tomorrow! Today I finally got around to putting up my wreath. That is about all the fake flowers I have. I figure fresh flowers on the front door is difficult to do. Not impossible, but difficult.
i wanted to make you a button but i couldn't get any inspiration going.
I love your POOPIE! I have the fake stuff down pretty good, now I need to make up some mistreatments for my windows!
