Hi everyone, we are starting a new feature here at Diva where we will share with you items that we have made, and it will be called Diva Makes! So for our very first Diva Makes I made this crochet pot the other day, and I just wanted to share it with you. To make the pot stiff, after I had finished it, I painted it with water and PVA glue mix, and allowed to dry. The flower was not washed with the glue mix and is still soft. Happy Crafting! Carole :)
