Elise Engh Studios: Crochet Flower Embroidery Hoops

I've discovered another use for crochet flowers...

This is such a girly way to decorate and I love it! I have one room in the house that I can make as girly as I want and that is my art room, so that's where these crochet flower embroidery hoops will stay :)

Check out the tutorial to get started with making your own:

Materials:
Embroidery Hoops
Acrylic Craft Paint
Paint Brush
Fabric- enough to cover your embroidery hoops
Hot Glue Gun with Hot Glue Sticks
Crochet Flowers -I made my flowers from the patterns below:
Seven Petal Crochet Flower
Crochet Sea Pennies
Mini Crochet Flowers
Seven Petal Daisy
9 Petal Summer Flower Motif

Step 1: Paint the outsides of the outer rings of the embroidery hoops with acrylic craft paint and let dry.

Step 2: Cut out fabric to fit the embroidery hoops. Cut the fabric large enough to fit inside the hoops and fold over the undersides.

Step 3: Place the fabric on the inner hoop and place the outer hoop on top, screwing it tight to hold. Then hot glue the edges to the inner hoop underneath.

Step 4: Arrange crochet flowers on the front of the hoops and hot glue them in place. Pretty Simple!
