Handmade Monday 72

I haven't been neglecting this blog (well maybe a little bit!) but with one thing and another time has been short for me this last couple of weeks. (More about my return to the dating world on a later blog post!)

I have though been busy in the corsage making department.  I just made this slightly different one for a lovely girl for her graduation next week -



I wouldn't really have thought about them for graduation until this order but actually think it will look good.  It  is made in her family tartan.

I have a lot of reading to catch up so am heading over to Handmade Harbour to see what everyone else has been up to.

Have a great week!
Mich :)

    That is lovely. It opens up loads of possibilities doesn't it. I can see them at scottish weddings, highland flings etc., Good thinking and a lovely posy.

    I agree that it's really lovely. I've never made this type of corsage before so don't really know the process and was wondering if you could make them with old ties.

    I don't know what happened 1st time around.... I probably pressed the incorrect button somehow!!!!

      It was strange Jan - I got an email saying about the comment but then I couldn't see it on line when I'd clicked the publish button - I'll try with one of my dad's ties and see if it works!

    Great for graduations, and proms is a good idea too. I love the extra addition of the netting.

    Think these would go down a storm for proms night. It looks lovely with the tartan embellishment. Hugs Mrs A.
