linen roses

August 05, 2010

the famous pompom flowers seen everywhere in blogland made me wish to create! an I did it!! adding a bit of personality and change I decided to make my baby's birthday a bit more special by adding these ornaments trough the house. I looked around and found few paper ones for sale - but they all looked so flimsy. so I purchased yards of linen, sprayed it with rose essential oil, and made the most wonderful fabric flowers around!
