Decorating our dining table

I wanted to decorate our dining table for quite a long time. :)

The first thing I wanted to do for a long time is to crochet new covers for candle lights, since I didn't like the colors, the wool and the simple pattern of the old ones any more.


I was inspired by this pattern and finally crocheted new ones.



The second thing I wanted do try out for a really long time was crochet covered stones. :) I wanted to do this since I found beautiful pictures of such stones in the internet, which was months ago. :) I wanted to decorate our dining table with it. So with the help of this tutorial I made two crochet covers. :)



Do you also like to decorate your home with knitted or crocheted things? I love that there exist so many wonderful ideas to decorate your home with yarn! :) :)

    1. Thank you, dear Susi! :) :) The weather gets me in such a knitting and crocheting mood every evening. Even though I don't like that it's getting dark so early lately, I love the cozyness of the evenings. :)
