April Showers Bring May (Crochet) Flowers

So this morning my sister Tatum and I decided to learn how to make crochet flowers. (A special thanks to youtube tutorials for making this happen). Tatum has been crocheting for years and picked up the flower technique like a champ. It took me a little longer, and a few restarts but I did get it down and now have 2 crochet flower hair clips (that i love). 

I'm still working on getting the tension to be just right so it is even and tighter but with practice it will happen. haha! (and since this picture was taken a cute button has been added to the center!)

After we finished making the crochet flowers, we busted out the feathers from my sister's ever-so-deep-and-filled-to-the-brim-with-every-single-thing-you-could-ever-need-to-do-any-craft closet, we made hair clips out of feathers and jewels. I was a bit sceptical if I would actually wear anything i made myself out of feathers, but I am already planning my first outfit around the clip. love it. looks like it is turning out to be the start of a very crafty summer. :)
