Hi guys! I have some cuteness to share with you today.
The easiest flower pattern that is just perfect for spring hair combs and hairpins. The basic flower is the same as for this mini flower to which I added another round.
For this project I used embroidery floss and 1.25 mm hook.
The pattern:
Chain 5 and join to make ring.
Round 1: sc 5 in ring. ch 5 and sl st in the next st. Repeat this 4 times.
Round 2: ch 8 and sc in the st between petals. Repeat this 4 times. sl st in the last st to end it. End that's it!
You can combine them (smaller on top of the bigger), to make them rich in appearance.
I glued them on with liquid silicone. It takes longer to dry but is much better than hot glue.
For these below I used my favourite pattern.
Also, I'd like to use this occasion to thank my newly found blog friend Amalia from Handmade by Amalia for awarding me the Liebster Award!
You must visit her enchanting blog - it is a true gem!
Hi Maya, I love your flowers you made for the hair pins. You have inspired me to try and make one! You amaze me with your creativity.
ReplyDeleteI love Amalia's blog too! She is a talented crocheter and has such cute stories to go with her work.
Enjoy the rest of the week.

Hahaha...it wasn'tuntil your comment that I realized I was referring to them as pins. I am making a dozen of these for the exhibit and my mother was over to help me.I told her to hand the pins over to me and she corrected me -but it didn't click with me until I read your comment :)
DeleteSo beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter is in love with these!
DeleteHow cool and totally feminine this is Maya, wonderful idea to wear flowers in your hair like this!
