Elementary Crochet

Free-handed this First Birthday Flower Crown for my niece a few years back. My sister wanted a whimsical, antique vibe. I think it turned out pretty nice! But on that face, what wouldn't look cute?

Greeting cards: do you save them for always or appreciate for a bit and then recycle with love?
I love making and giving these because the recipient can do both in a meaningful, non-cluttering way. Framed, it makes the cutest desk or wall decor, and detached, it makes a great keepsake as a Christmas ornament. You can even glue a magnet on the back to brighten up the fridge artwork.

Over the past three years l've made so many fun, little things, but I gifted most of them away before staging any + profesh pictures. Luckily many of them went to little cuties like my insanely adorable niece right here. She's cuter than anything I could ever stage on my own. Seriously, she's unreal, right?

Pattern from , but tweaked a bit to make the look I wanted.
