Tempest of Roses in a Teacup Tutorial

In honor of my stint as Art Saves guest curator at CrescenDoh, I've put together a how-to project that makes use of pretty vintage teacups. Teacups are plentiful at antique malls and they look so delicate and appealing. They hark back to a slower time when people spent time sipping and chatting over the latest gossip. But if you're not a tea drinker, you may not have a good way to put them to use. With this adorable vessel full of felt roses, you can turn a tempest in a teacup into a reason to celebrate. Make one for a friend who needs cheering and tie a personal note to the handle. Pile some chocolates on the saucer and leave one for a co-worker you appreciate. Or whip one up for yourself in your favorite colors. You'll find the illustrated directions here. Crumpets anyone?
