Happy Saturday!
In my last post I talked about the projects I am planning to do with the crochet flowers, and this is actually the first project. Tomorrow is a happy day in our household because we are going to celebrate Eva's 20th, so I decided to ditch the idea of using the vintage Valentine's bunting, and go with these flower numbers instead.
I got the idea at the last minute, when it was impossible to order the 3D cardboard numbers, so I whipped them out myself. I am not quite satisfied how the "2" turned out, and the "0" is a bit smaller than the "2", mainly because I was generously snipping away at the cardboard; however, I was in a hurry to finish it and not let her see me working on it, and also I know she won't mind. Luckily, she catches up on my blog late, though she follows me on social media, so I'll have to keep this one just here until tomorrow.
I filled the numbers with chunks of floral foam and then pinned the flowers to it, because, let's be realistic here - I can use these in so many other projects after the big day is over :)
What's going on with you? Any weekend projects lined up?
Where did time fly? 20 already! Many happy returns to Eva! I love your idea of making numbers with crochet flowers to decorate the party. It is so sweet and creative at the same time. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Alhana! Yes, I still cannot believe she is 20! It feels as if it was yesterday I brought her home from the hospital. Time flies like crazy!
