Crocheted Brooches With Vintage Buttons

These are not the, over the top, unusual,  accessories that I typically make.

They are simple crocheted flower brooches embellished with vintage buttons.

Something that anyone could feel comfortable wearing.

I think they might look nice to dress up a jacket or maybe pin one on a cool weather scarf.

All were crocheted with lovely wool yarn and backed with recycled wool felt.

I love the antique glass button on this ivory one.

I think most of these will end up as gifts, but I'll probably keep at least one for myself .

I made a simple necklace as well.

I felted the wool beads myself. First I needle felted them and then followed that up with some wet felting.

There is a glass bead between each of the felted ones and the clasp is copper.

Once again, not my usual, over the top, kind of thing.

Perfect for Fall, don't you think?

Thanks for stopping by!

Spring Cleaning Giveaway

It's that time of year when most of us are sorting, organizing, and cleaning.

Some people call it nesting.

I've been doing the same.
I also did some Spring cleaning in my  Etsy shop and will be giving away a few of those items.
Three crocheted pieces.

Since winter refuses to let up, I've chosen something to keep you warm, something for your home, and something just for fun to help you think Spring.

Lets think Spring first.

A little crocheted worm on a mossy rock.

To keep you warm, a thick, crocheted cowl.

And for your home, a felted wool, wall pocket.

I will pick a winner on Monday, Feb. 14th.

To enter for the drawing:
Two chances to win.

Follow my blog for one entry and leave a comment for another.

I'd love to see what you're up to and check out your blogs as well.

I've met so many creative people through my blogging and have made some wonderful new friends.

I'm looking forward to more of the same.

I hope you decide to join me and to share with me your creative passions as well.

One clean and shiny corner of my home. A long way to go!

Hugs and best wishes to everyone.
