All things handmade!!!

I knw this blog is all about handmade stuff... but this post is 100% truly handmade stuff.. i.e everything is handmade in this blog(except the wire and green tape used for the stems of the flowers)

I found these cute flowers on http://foldingtrees.com and thought of making some for my home decor, and they turned out to be pretty good. I havent made a lot of them and I'm still in the process of making many of these to place all over (for they look lovely and charismatic) and better then the one's found in the markets.. and what more.... they are lovingly and painstakingly make by self !!!



I'm quite actually in love with the blue bunch of flowers for they are really soothing to the eyes :)
The vase here is made out of a Real fruit juice bottle :D and is quite wobbly dobbly at present and I'm thinking of putting some sand in there to make it sturdy. I have wrapped up the empty juice can in a handmade paper and it has quite nice cute little handmade leaves on it in golden finish and I coudnt make out at first if it was  real or not.. It looks quite nice and in place... :)

So I have embarked on a mission to make out a complete Blue bunch of flowers and place them separately in one place and I'm sure they are gonna look awesome!!!!
Here's the collection I have made till now...



Here's another picture of the vase with the flowers in there.. have played around with the picture in picasa with the colors... and I love the effect :)



Hope to keep on making interesting things to fill up my home with !!!
Happy Arting and Crafting  :D

    Hi Manu, wow...these flowers look fantastic! You have gone to a lot of effort and it really shows. I like the blue ones too, but I think my fav ones are the burgundy ones.

    Manu, you rocked it out on these flowers! It's okay that I don't see any purple..LOL... ;) These are outstanding and the vase looks terrific too. I agree, an entire vase of that blue would be outstanding. Very easy on the eyes. Thank you so much for the link as well!

Now i'm embarking on the journey to collect all my favourite dies :) Finally, I completed the album before I embarked on my long due vacation back to both my homes, I delivered it and I'm sooper happy since it has been loved and liked by all :) I have made a lot of flowers for this album as the album is all girlish and little girls love flowers :) I had a lot of them punched an
