This is a my selection of daffodils and narcissi. There are seven in total, in various colourways, each one has a stem which measures approximately 10". I have made them full size, with the flower heads measuring approximately 4" wide at widest point. I took the colour combinations from the narcissi which we have growing in our own garden. The stems are not rigid, they are made from twisted chenille stems encased in a knitted piece. They are displayed in a vase measuring 16cms high, which is an ideal height for flowers this size. Use them for display, for party favours, theatre or drama props, or just as a gift.

This set has been made in soft summery colours, with lashings of "topping" and are covered in sprinkles, the " candy covered chocolate" variety! Each one has a removeable case, so you can swap them to look different again. This set has been designed for display only and are not suitable for young children due to the beads which have been used. In the picture they are displayed on a 9 diameter cake stand, so you can see the size of them. Lovely for a display in your kitchen/dining room, as theatre/drama props, as a gift for someone who adores cupcakes, or just as an everlasting treat with no calories attached! They are washable, very carefully, in a cool hand wash. TheShabbyTiger Thu, 29 Mar 2012 10:24:08 +0000 http://folksy.com/items/3157870 http://folksy.com/items/3157870 knitted cupcakes with sprinkles
