She was inspired by a few things she saw on pinterest and I modified her creation just a little bit. You can see her flock on this post
Now on to what I did.
I bought a box of shower curtain rings at the dollar store and a skein of homespun yarn. I could have gone with cheaper yarn which my thrifty side encouraged me to do but this one looked more wooly and lamb like.
Next I single crocheted around the curtain ring and tied on a piece of raffia to be used as a hanger. Then I went out in the back yard to the sheep leg tree and got myself a branch to make sheep legs. I also made a little template for the head which I cut out of black felt.
Last a little dab of hot glue to attach the head and the legs and the flock was born.
I was going to put eyes on them but then I just opted not to.

These are just adorable!!!! Hey, wouldn't they make awesome napkin rings at Easter?

Those are adorable, Ann! You come up with such unique ideas :)
these are as cute as they can be and i like them without the eyes to... you could use this same thing and make ornaments for a tree by putting little Christmas things or cut outs on it... adorable.
This is so dar-ar-ar-ar-ned cute!!!
How adorable! I saw one lady last year selling the big clear glass ornaments and she added name (after customers bought them) on the glass. She sold very well. Just an idea for you.
