FELT DAHLIAS

I found these beautiful Felt Dahlia Broochs, while perusing one of the many crafty blogs I follow. So of course, I ran out and bought a bunch of felt.

Now, as I'm sure you all know, I love all things miniature, so I had to try to adapt the pattern and make some rings. Big oversized costume jewelry rings are all the rage right now, so I thought these would fit right in.

If you want to give it the old college try and create one of these beautiful flowers for yourself, go here.

I hope you think they are as beautiful as I do.

CRAFT PROJECT

To keep my mind off "things" this week, I decided to get a little crafty. I saw a tutorial for these barrettes on the internet, and had to try to make a few of my own. Very Easy, Very Fun, and Very Cute!! The tutorial said it was for "Little" girls, but why can't "40 Something" girls wear them too?

However, I do know a few "Little" girls, and maybe their Mommies too, who might like one of their own, so I plan to get busy next week whipping up a bunch. I'll be sure to post pictures of all my creations.
