Some people dream of a wedding under the Christmas tree...

If a wedding is coming up soon among your friends or acquaintances, you can start crocheting these cute surprise figures using your leftover yarn. They’re crocheted around an empty Kinder Surprise egg shell, where you can hide a little surprise (cash, a gift card, or a piece of jewelry). The crocheted wedding couple also looks great as a table decoration or as a topper for the wedding cake.

Always a great decoration—not just for spring!
With this crochet pattern for the colorful tulips, you can bring spring right into your home ♥

The tulips are perfect for using up leftover yarn - for each tulip, you’ll need about 10 g of green yarn (stem + leaf) and 7 g of a color of your choice for the tulip bloom. The tulip itself will be about 22 cm tall.

You only need a little cotton for the adorably sweet cacti too!

Quick to crochet and, thanks to their handy size (approx. 8 and 9.5 cm), ideal little gifts ♥
