FO Friday- Happy Flower decoration

Yikes, November already? I'm going to clear my WIP's this month, the shawl, sock and cardigan are going to be finished. They've been hanging around long enough! Of course the reason they've been hanging around is that I keep getting distracted and casting on new projects, like the stripey bag I showed you last week. This week's FO is another one of those distraction projects...


It's a Happy Flower Decoration from the Attic24 pattern


I don't like working with cotton yarn very much, I can't seem to get my tension right. The flower looks happy and handmade though so I guess it's ok :-)


I had fun rummaging through my button and bead stash for decorating it. I added this little bell at the bottom, it probably won't get much opportunity to jingle but it makes me smile anyway


I used seed beads left over from beaded shawls in between the different pieces, in the evening light the silver ones almost sparkle :)


The black button in the middle of the flower has holographic glitter :-) Fab!


And this is where my flower will live, on the wall between my two lounge windows. A little bit of happy colour :-) Just what you need on gloomy wet days!


I'm looking forward to heading over to Tami's later to see the other FO Friday posts :-) Thanks for dropping by. Sorry the photos are a bit lacking. It's half term week here and whenever I find a spare moment to take photos it's usually cloudy and dark *sigh* I'm going to take the little darlings out for a walk now, try to burn off some of that excess energy lol
