Poinsettias for the Hitty Cupboard

Scraps

Arianell and Eugenia were inspired by Linnea’s felt flowers…

Potential

…so they cut some scraps of felt…

…threaded them on a yellow-headed pin…

Flowers

…and made some Poinsettia flowers for the Hitty cupboard!!

Cotton Reel

Then they chose a cotton reel…

Foil

…covered it with aluminium foil…

Ribbon

…and tied a ribbon around it!

So Lovely

Poinsettia flowers are so pretty on the dining room table!

I added some more yellow flower centres using a toothpick and some yellow acrylic paint. I really like that this project was quick and used up materials just lying around the house.

  That is the best thing, these wee flowers use such tiny scraps of felt, and look so pretty! The Country Hittys will surely end up with the prettiest garden of posies!
