Have old sewing patterns you don't know what to do with? Turn them into a floral bouquet! I came across this craft on Country Home magazine's website. It's an interesting addition to a room that will definitely peak people's curiosity.
Step 1: For each flower, cut six 7-inch squares from the pattern. Stack and fold them accordion-style six times, forming a one-by seven-inch rectangle. Snip off the corners of the rectangle with scissors.
Step 2: Tightly twist a wire floral stem around the center of the rectangle.
Step 3: Fan out the paper, then pull apart each layer, creating the blossom.
So I have not blogged in going on 2 months, but have recently been inspired by Katy Elliott's blog. She is a master blogger, and I hope to be as good a blogger as her when I grow up. Anyway, I have found another awesome outfit/interior match! When I reflect upon my own wardrobe, blue does not appear in it very often. But, when it's put together like this, it makes me think I should add more of it. Check out how well these two feed off of eachother.
