Stocking Rose

Stocking flowers are not quite beaded flowers, but still very beautiful. I recently found a lovely website: Flowers that Last, which is an Australian site. They have a beautiful gallery, and their kits page is very inspirational also. These flowers are very beautiful and very easy to make: simply make a wire loop, cover with colored nylon stocking, shape it and you have a very pretty petal. The flowers look quite realistic and make beautiful decorations.
Here is a small rose of my own design which has been pinned onto a shirt.
