Another Day, Another Flower.

Had a rough sleeping night last night. Not sure if I was having some sort of anxiety attack (I do get those), but my heart was racing a mile a minute. Finally at 2am I was able to get some sleep. My son was up for the day at 6:45, so I’m going to take advantage of both of them napping in a little while to get some much needed rest. I used my sleepless time last night to crochet a few flowers last night as well as make a few yarn flowers. Both are pictured below.

I did get some creating done last night. As you can see, I used the new yarn I mentioned yesterday. It’s called ‘Rag Doll’.

Today after lunch, I took the kids downstairs in the basement to play and I was able to make this felt and fabric flower with a beaded center.

I’m so very pleased with it. On the back I made a felt pocket that I can either slide a pin-back in or a headband. I plan on making my future hair accessories for kids like this so they can fit over the inexpensive plastic headbands. That way when the headband snaps, and it most undoubtedly will, it can be put on a new headband or hair clip.

Hubby comes home tomorrow afternoon. I did enjoy the break. Now back to the normal routine. My son’s preschool mornings have changed from Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday to Monday, Tuesday, Friday. I’m so excited about this because Fridays means Garage and Estate Sales, Yay!

By the way, if any of you are interested in detailed instructions to make anything I show a picture of, please let me know.
