Felted flower loom blooms with beading
A while ago I bought a children's knitting set from Poundland because, amoungst other things, it had a knitting Nancy for French knitting included. Now my attention has turned to the flower loom. Flower looms were popular in the 70's, I've included an advert of the Ronco flower loom, marvel at what they made! I haven't used a flower loom before and decided to have a play. Looking at the resulting 'flowers' I thought they would be perfect for felting. I am really pleased with the results and think they could be used to embellish a myriad of things.

I had one of those ronco ones in the 1970s! nice to see it updated :) Where is your nearest Poundland? I seem to recall one in Hemel?

Alas Poundland has not had them in for a while, I keep looking! But if I see them anywhere else I will let you know. Poundland and the 99p shop are in Hemel
