Handmade Flower Shower Gifts

So I took a hiatus from blogging but I have still been crafting. Lately I have been working on some shower gifts and my little girl's birthday party. I will post about the birthday party hopefully next week but I want to show you how I used the same technique from my cloth flower headband post to spruce up a Shower gift.

I made a wreath with handmade flowers. I bought the twig wreath from the craft store. The bottom layer is made of white felt flowers and the top flowers are made from assorted cotton fabric with buttons in the center. I also painted an A and hot glued it to the wreath. All of the flowers are hot glued as well.

I also added some handmade flowers to a dish towel to spruce them up and tie them into the color scheme. The flowers were hand sewn into the kitchen towel.

I bought a plain white frame and hot glued three handmade flowers onto the corner. Inside I placed some word art I made on www.picnik.com. Unfortunately Picnik has now closed but a lot of their cool effects are on Google+.

I put everything into a basket I had at the house and added some matching napkins and potholders to complete the gift. To spruce up the basket I hot glued ribbon and handmade flowers to the front of the basket.

All in all I was very pleased with the gift and I hope that my friends will think of me when they see their one of a kind, handmade gifts.
