Spring (?) Flowers

Dreaming of spring--decided I needed some flowers since we won't get real ones for at least a few more months (and those will be daffodils and tulips that will no doubt fall under the weight of a spring snow).  I used more felted wool sweaters.  
Cut out loose flower shapes, used 20 gauge wire through a button, and then twisted the wire. Next I hot glued and twisted jute around the wire stem and hot glued felted wool leaves on.  
Gathered some together, popped them into a bed spring and added a chalkboard tag--easy, anyone can do kind of a project! Oh, and if you are counting, this is idea 22!  Sorry, dirty camera lens!

  1. I love the flowers! I am also anxiously awaiting Spring! Seems about mid-March every year we get a big snow. Hopefully, history will not repeat itself this year! =)
