Sometimes I make something that just isn't what I wanted it to be and it's bugging me!. I will try a felt wreath again one day but for now I can't wait to remove this one!. It didn't take long did it for me to want to get started on my Crochet summer wreath. But this time it needs to be much quicker!. I don't think I have the energy to start a large wreath like my spring wreath pictured bellow. I need to make one that's a little smaller. Thankfully I tend to keep a lot of my magazines and this old Simply Crochet magazine has a section on weddings and it actually features a wedding bouquet made from Crochet flowers. This actually features over 8 different flowers to try. It's issue 32 check online I'm sure you can order back copy's. Failing that any flowers would be great. The hardest thing will be choosing the colours!. I was so puzzled when it came to the colours to use in this wreath then it hit me. Once it's warmer and we no longer need a fire we use my nanny buttons fire screen. If you didn't know Nanny Buttons is my Grandad's mum. Both are sadly no longer with us.
I have some lovely memories of Nanny buttons but I have to say I don't remember this fire screen. This was made by Nanny buttons and the frame made by my Dad so it's extra special and one of my most favourite things. It seams obvious now that my wreath should be the same colours. I might even try some button flowers to match. l will this post this now and I'll let you know once I match the colours. Very exciting I can't wait to get started on this. Have a lovely week xxxx
