More Crochet Flapper Hats and New Designs





 
The new cloche, a little different than last year's Flapper Hat can be worn folded up or left down. It is made with a supersoft lambswool blend which my customers have loved or the last several years.
There is so much in the works now that my daughters wedding is over.
To catch up feel free to stop by my webiste, Divella Delights.
I will be back soon with so much more...new jewelry designs and some more hats as well.

A Beaded Lei: Part 1

When my daughter returned to Hawaii from her deployment I decided try to come up with a beaded Lei. The first part was designing the flowers which of course takes making up some samples. Here I have a few different types of petals. Now that I have decided which ones I like best I can begin creating the flowers that will make up the actual Lei.

I will also be creating an orchid in purple and yellow similar to this one. While working this one up I came across some changes I would like to make.

I think at this point that I will be doing the leaves in micro-macramé, similar to those on this piece but we’ll see what happens! I never know what will develop at my table!

I will phasing out this blog since I have one on my website...be sure to follow the rest of this story there at Divella Delights
