New Ideas for A New Year

Hi there!

Happy 2012! How's your 2012 been so far? Mine started with a cough that kept me awake at night...must have overdone the 'feasting' in the festive season....and before we know it, it'll be another 'feasting' season in 3 weeks -- Chinese New Year!

I was looking at all the Chinese-styled apparel in the stores (which incidentally are predominantly red or 'reddish') and thinking about what I could make to go with them....here's one...
Each of these flowers have been crocheted with 24 1 mm wide beads for that added sparkle.
Here's my dear girl with them....
Continuing with the Oriental theme....how about these for the baby princess?
Baby booties in Cream and Pink Nylon/Acrylic blend yarn. Booties measure 3.75" x 2" and double-layered soles give extra comfort. Coral Chinese knot adds the perfect touch.
The hair-clip I made for my niece (earlier post) inspired more.....
Each flower measures about 5.5 cm across.



I love these hair-clips as you can't see the clip when you wear it! Each is one-of-a-kind...there's only ONE each.
