More Flowers!

Lately... I've been experimenting with crocheted flowers. I purchased a tutorial video of a crocheted flower and button necklace designed by the sensational Jenny Doh of Somerset fame.

She makes her's with hemp yarn and dyed vintage buttons. But, I have been infatuated with a certain yellow lace weight baby alpaca yarn... soooo I used it instead along with sweet ,tiffany ,blue buttons, gleaned from my grandmother, Flossie's, button jar. Oh, did I mention that yarn is super yummylicious soft.

Then..I added vintage rhinestones for some bling
Voila...Instant charm

Meanwhile.... flowers are popping out all over the place here.
