I’m basking in the glow of getting things done here: I finished the 50 crochet corsages for Kelly’s Bar-the launch was Friday night, and after a few mild anxiety attacks, I arrived in with the box of finished corsages with literally 2 minutes to spare (I like to keep myself on my toes, wouldn’t like to allow an air of complacency to filter through…)
They made a really lovely pattern when laid out, and I photographed each stage…-
The flat crochet backs…
…flowers added…
…buttons sewn on top… (Thank you dear friends, Bernadette and Barbara!)
…brooch pin and our “handmade” label attached to the back…
I then made some tags with the Kelly’s logo and attached with ribbon…
It was so lovely to see the first fifty customers come in wearing my creations!!!
I made more of these for our shop, and so
I’m hoping to upload some similiar images onto our shop website early this week (have to move a few things around there, be sure to check it out, we’ll have some gorgeous Easter gifts featured soon!)
I just love those corsages. I can’t wait til they are available to buy. Wow! They look like Joy on a plate!
The corsages look devine. I love the colour combination. The button is a lovely simple touch that really makes a difference. Well done for the patience to do 50, not to mention the poor wrists after all that crochet.!!
Beautiful corsages! You do such lovely work! Please post pics of what Kelly’s looks like. Miss you! xx
