etsy Hooker Team Challenge

Valentines Day Red Romantic RosesEvery few months the etsy Hookers Team holds a challenge. We are given a theme and a time schedule. Everyone heads off to create a new item to fit the topic. After all the entries are in, we hold a public vote. The winner is selected and gets to pick the next theme. It is a lot of fun, and offers a way to promote your etsy shop. I love seeing the creative items everyone comes up with.

The current theme is romance, due to Valentine's Day being near. My entry features red wool roses in a lace vase. Check out the button accent stems ! These button flowers are a new interest of mine. By combining different button shapes and beads, pretty little flowers can be made.

Everyone can check out the challenge entries on the etsy Hooker Team's website. They are not posted today, but when a few more entries are received, the items will be displayed there.  Join me in checking out all the talent from this great group of Hookers. To find out more about the team, visit their main website too.

I love your roses. Wish I could make them. Are they your own design and do you sell the pattern?
