Coming Up Roses!

Floss recently posted about customising your wardrobe.

I had a load of pony-tail elastics which were decorated with silk flowers. I have had them years - and to be truthful, some of them may originally have belonged to Liz or Steph. But I never wear them in my hair now.

So I carefully removed the elastic from the back and sewed brooch pins on to them. And now I have some pretty corsages to pin onto a winter coat or jacket.

...these two pictures show some of them before...

Satisfying result for a few minutes work and no cost!
