Hello my dear friends, I am trying to work on a few new Christmas ideas and creations these days ~ one of them being my felted wool blanket poinsettia, which I hate to say is still not completed because some things just take longer until they are perfectly right. I love Poinsettias so very much and they are such beautiful flowers but since we have cats at home and poinsettias are very dangerous for them, I can't have the 'real thing' in our house anymore and that's a little sad but that's the way it is. I was a little tiered a few days ago just sitting at my dining table and looking at the glum and gray wet weather outside when I thought that I should create my own Christmas flowers. How? .. I wasn't really sure at first but after thinking for a little while it came to me. At the beginning, as almost always, there were a few little hurdles that I had to overcome whilst working on the idea but in the end again everything came together! My studio had everything that I needed, so I had no need to buy anything ... vintage music sheets, wire, antique mercury glass beads and a dash of glitter amongst the other bits and pieces you need when crafting. It took me a day or so ~ because of the time to dry the glue ~ but then my first one was done and it looked so beautiful! And here is ... ...my Christmas poinsettia. Can you tell that I really like the way this creation turned out ... I took so many photos I just couldn't decide which one's to post ... so I used all! My poinsettia turned out larger than I thought it would at first ~ it is actually slightly larger than dinner plate size! An here some interesting things something I read about the poinsettia and Christmas ... The plant's association with Christmas began in 16th century Mexico, where legend tells of a young girl who was too poor to provide a gift for the celebration of Jesus's birthday. The tale goes that the child was inspired by an angel to gather weeds from the roadside and place them in front of the church altar. Crimson "blossoms" sprouted from the weeds and became beautiful poinsettias. The poinsettia derives its common English name from Joel Roberts Poinsett the first United States Minister to Mexico who introduced the plant into the United States in 1825 and in Germany the poinsettia is called 'Weihnachtsstern' which means Christmas star ~ isn't that lovely?! You can read more about the poinsettia on Wikipedia if you like to know more about it. I know that this isn't my one and only Christmas star I am going to make ... I am already thinking of how I could give it different looks but that will be for a future post. Thank you for stopping by and visiting me here at Todolwen ~ it is always so nice when you do. I hope you are well and life is treating you kind. Have a peaceful and creative day, yours, Karen B.
