Pink with 3D Burgundy Roses - Flower Decor Series - Work-In-Progress

RSS Designs In Fiber - My Handmade Designs on ARTFIRE and ETSY


As part of doing my FLOWER DECOR SERIES, I decided to do a variety of Small Flower Doilies or Coasters with matching Napkin Rings.

I started with a "Pink with 3D Burgundy Roses" theme!

This is still a "Work-In-Progress", so this only shows part of what the Set will be.

The "Pink" will be Shell Stitch done in Baby Pink Crochet Thread for all the pieces.

The "3D Burgundy Roses" will be Multi-layer Crocheted Roses in a Burgundy Red Pearl Cotton Thread - with a Pinkish Center.

This Set will be 2 Coasters or Trinket Doilies as pictured in the top photo above -- with 2 Napkin Rings, as in the bottom picture, but with the 3D Burgundy Rose attached to it.  I am still working on the second Napkin Ring.

I thought a Set of 2 each would be nice for this -- Roses reflect a Romantic theme -- and so this will be a Romantic Set for a Dinner for Two!!

Watch for this to show up in one of my Online Shops - either Artfire or Etsy !!

Independence Day: "Sweet Land of Liberty" at The Handmade Place

Since I started selling my Crochet and Knitting (My Fiber Arts), I have usually done some Americana -- and you will find some of it mentioned here on my blog!!

But this year, I found through Facebook and the Facebook Group, "It's Better Handmade", something new - it is "The Handmade Place" - a blog by Diane Schamp.

Using "Linky Tools", Diane creates "Events" on different themes -- allowing people to post photos of Handmade items they are selling online.

Right now (see date of this post) - the theme is "Sweet Land of Liberty" for Independence Day, July 4th - this will last until July 31, 2011.

Though they don't show in the photo above, I added 2 of my Americana items to the "Sweet Land of Liberty Event" on "The Handmade Place":
