Just hanging around




I have had ikea cup saucers in my cupboards for years not being used, and several days ago i came across a tutorial by the crochet crowd for a jar cozy, and instantly i thought about my little cup saucers. I can make little garden hanging baskets with lights in. I have ordered led tea light candles to place in them, look for updates on my instagram for that. As promised i have finally get to post a fun little project for you guys to make. It has been a while since i last posted, but as i have a toddler my days are pretty full and hectic. I do have another pattern i am almost finished with, i am fine tuning it and hopefully will have it posted before i leave in vacation the beginning of July. here we go
