Egg flowers
May I present to you... egg flowers!
The other day when I was digging through my scrapbasket, just itching to make more tissueholders, I suddenly had an idea for a new scrappy project. Eggwarmers...hurray! Don't you love it when a new idea just pops into your head?
It all went so smooth too. Sorting fabrics, cutting, sewing and the result was as I had hoped.
I made the coordinating eggholders from wool felt. Later I realised that these can also be used to hold napkins... multi-purpose holders, wow :)
They are super easy to make. All you need is two pieces of fabric and a bit of elastic for the eggwarmers, and a piece of wool felt and fabric for the eggholder. Don't you think they will brighten up the Easter breakfast table?
I just came across this, which is also a wonderful way to use up your scraps.
They look great all together!

Very nice! They remind me of spring. And of those bun warmers.

These are nice -- a wonderful idea. I know Bea would have a blast nestling all her Easter eggs inside their cozies.Love your window prototype below - simply charming.
