Quick and Easy Framed crochet flower



It is just snowing!!!Snow didn't forget about Toronto.
While surfing on the net I got the idea of framing crocheted flowers. But I couldn't find the blog entry inspired me.
I made crocheted flowers and kept them thinking of creating some hair clips. But it didn't happen. Instead I thought about putting them on top of my microwave to remind me of spring.






Here is what I did. Crocheted a flower. Made a stem using chain stitches. Made a leaf. Put everything together on a paper. I know, I could have used card stock ...I wanted a white background. So I cut a white paper and pasted on top of an unwanted photo. Used small pieces of double sided tape to attach the flower, stem and the leaf.


 So you can see the not so perfect work here. Now, I have this tall glass, a memento of Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. I just put my crocheted flower plant inside the glass.


The first picture shows how it is in my kitchen. Actually it looks much better than in the photos. My kitchen has mirror back splashes. So it reflects the flash....But I hope, you enjoy a quick crafty idea
