For the past couple of days I've been working on a summer clutch purse. I was inspired to make a bag using the crochet daisy I had made prior. It turned out exactly how I wanted it to. I'm working on the final touch...adding lining to the purse. I am kind of loving the purse and I think I will make a few more and experiment on the patterns.
Here's my DIY Easter Wreath. I used two different color yarns to wrap around the Styrofoam wreath and the Egg/Flower decor I got from Ben Franklin. I also crochet a few flowers and hot glued them on. Not sure if I'm happy about the final result...Feel like it's still missing something...
With Easter right around the corner, I'm getting lots of inspiration with Easter themed crochet projects. We host an annual Easter Egg hunt in our backyard with our friends and so I'm always looking for fun ideas for a little easter basket for kids to take home. This year, I really want to make something for the kids and came up with this little guy...inspired by the Easter movie HOP. I have to make about 16 of these in 2 weeks...not sure if I will be able to but I am going to try. Hahaha...
Anyway, it's been awhile since I've done a giveaway that I thought this would be a great time to do one. I've put together a cute little giveaway basket and partnered with my friend, Cristi atMotherhood Unadorned. Cristi and I have been friends for many years (since our first-born were babies) and she has always been a huge supporter of my small business which I am truly grateful. She is also an active advocate of suicide prevention and mental health awareness. I have learned so much more about mental health issues because of her. As we have done in the past, we are doing this little Easter giveaway together. The prize includes a bunny chocolate, bubble egg wand, crochet mini basket and this cute little amigurumi chick (2.5") who really wants to be an Easter bunny, all packaged in a little basket to make a wonderful Easter gift. Total value of the prize: $40 My daughter loves the little chick so much that she easily agreed on letting me take photos of her with it...normally I have to bribe her with candy...
