Knit a Bow Ring

I found this adorable knit bow ring pattern at One Sheepish Girl, and just had to share it with you guys.  This project is quick, super cheap and easy.  What a great stash buster to use up you leftover yarn scraps.  The little bow rings would make perfect party gifts for a girls night.  You could even attach them to ear posts for a sweet pair of earrings.  Make them in pink and red for Valentine’s Day.  Use them to embellish your handmade paper crafts!  Looks like I have some knitting to do.

If I have learned anything about my sweet readers, it is that you love recycled crafts.  Here is a beautiful rose made from recycled plastic spoons that I spied over at Cut Out & Keep.  It is simply beautiful!   You could spray paint it your favorite color, or just leave it the color of your spoons.

Making roses from trash is super gratifying.  Remember the aluminum can rose I showed you?  There is even a video!
