Every little girl needs a pretty little dress with a flower on it! When my girls were just toddlers and I started designing dresses for them, they loved having pretty flowers on them. They felt so dainty and princess-y in them and it was fun to watch them dance around in something I made. I made so many flowers for dresses and matching headbands! Each headband had different flowers or colors. I would simply make 2 or 3 chains that would be long enough to go from the top of their head to the back of the neck and be able to tie to secure them on. Knot those 2 or 3 chains together and you have a perfect, simple little headband to enjoy. On the back of the flower itself, just weave the chains through a few stitches to hold it on. Easy peasy! Crocheted Flowers are a quick project to work up, great for using up your scrap yarn and fun to embellish any project. Just a few ideas for use: 1. Headbands 2. Dresses 3. Little girls hand corsage 4. Blankets 5. Hats 7. Bouquet of flowers Have I missed anything?

This is so cute. I was looking for something small and simple to make for the seniors in the choir at my high school for graduation and found this and thought "This is absolutely perfect"
