Simply glue a magnet to the back of a small rose. A big rose might be too heavy for the magnet.

Day 5 ~ Rosy Tea cup

 
This cute decoration is great for a unique gift and super easy to make.
 
What you need:
 
1 tea or coffee cup (I got mine at goodwill for 35 cents)
Half a Styrofoam ball
Enough crochet roses to cover the Styrofoam ball
Hot glue gun and glue sticks
 


Depending on the size of the yarn you are making your roses with, you will need anywhere between 10 and 15 roses. Be sure to have enough yarn on hand to match your color.

How to do it make a rosy tea cup:

  1. Use glue gun to glue Styrofoam ball to the top of the cup.
  2. Starting at the top of the foam ball, begin gluing the flowers. Be sure to fill in all of the gaps. It is quite difficult to go back later and rearrange the flowers after the glue has dried.

That's It!

Rose Ring ~ Day 1

Crochet roses are amazing and can be used for so many different purposes. I am partial to using sock yarns and embroidery floss for my smaller roses.

A great way to display these pretty things is to create a Rose Ring. You can buy the ring bases at any craft store for a few dollars. There are usually multiple rings in a pack so you can make Rose Rings for your friends as well.

The quickest way I have found to attach the finished roses to the ring is with a hot glue gun.
Total time to make a ring: 20 minutes for the rose. 2 minutes to glue it to the ring base. Ta Da!
