Crochet Cacti

For weeks I had these cacti laying around on my craft table, because I couldn't find nice little pots for them, so in the end I made crocheted pots. Not what I had in mind, but doesn't look awful either.

  3. I adore your Cacti! Last year (oops, 2 years ago) when we went for our anniversary to Barcelona I ran into this wonderful craft community that made cacti in fabrics as pin cushions. They are so happy, these little colorful guys. Long story short, a template is on my blog now. And whenever I see fun diy cacti like this, I recall my happy memories of a really wonderful trip. ~ Rose

  4. These crochet cacti are so cute! I'm so jealous of people who can crochet like this. I learned how to crochet when I was younger, stopped for a long time, and now I can barely make a blanket. Woops! Anyways, love your work.

  9. Love these, thanks for sharing on craft schooling Sunday. So surprised you couldn't find any pots, even little tin buckets or votive holders of some kind could work for your next batch!

  10. Aww, those are so cute! Do you sell them anywhere? I love cactus plants but I cannot seem to keep them alive so crochet versions would be nice! :o)

French Knitted Names

One of my favorite things to do when I was a little girl was French knitting, but the only things I ever made of it were small rugs. There wasn't much more to find than rugs in the small world of children's crafts books. But a while ago I saw French knitted names and I think this looks so much better than rugs! I did something with wire and French knitting before, but didn't think about making names for a second. I love this idea! Perfect for a little baby present for example!

Felt Toucan

When I saw this one, it was like I was back in Costa Rica right away, although it's quite some years ago that I was there. The green, the flowers, the animals; when I think of paradise and the variety of all creatures that must be living there, I think Costa Rica equals it the most. I couldn't wait to make it and as soon as the craft store opened and I was finally able to buy the supplies needed, I ran out the door. I finished this piece the same day.
