Repetitive? Handmade Flower..

Hello Krafters!

As I was looking through my photos of projects that I have shared on my blog, it dawned on me that it has been a LONG time since I made my own flowers! I guess I have been spoiled J I also realized that my projects were starting to look repetitive to me. So I pulled out my hoarded lace and got to work!

Today, I am sharing an altered box I made using my handmade flower…it reminds me of the Prima flowers! Anywho, I really like how it turned out! On the flower, I used a broach that I bought on clearance. I felt they would be great together! I layered the flower on pearl strings and a feather. I made a stick pin to finish off the flower.




Although I have shared several altered projects, I believe this one does not look repetitive! I think I achieved my goal of the day! J


I hope you enjoyed today’s project! I hope the person who received this likes it as much as I did! Thanks for stopping by, Krafthead~

  5. You have no idea how SPECTACULAR this box is!! The pictures don't do it justice. There is such warmth and love that you feel when you see this box that can't be captured by film. I adore this box!!! The lace flowers, the stick pin, the paper and the crackle element on the box, the placement of every item on this project. This box couldn't be more perfect!!! Thanks you sooooo very much. Hubs and I both love this piece!!!
