How to make use of "leftover" threads

Oftentimes, once we're done with a certain project, there will always be leftover threads. These threads are just left there waiting for the time that they might be used. However, there are lots of ways on how to make use of them just like in what I did. 



Since All Saint's and All Soul's Day are coming, I decided to use my leftover threads to make pretty flowers. Using the crochet carnation pattern I used when I made my crochet floral crown,  I made this. 

I tied the ends of the threads together and continue with the pattern, connected each thread as I go on.





As you can see here, there are different colors due to different colors of threads used.



Insert the wire on the flower.





 You can use the wire the attach the flowers together and sew them to secure. 

 Sew the crochet vine on the flower to secure, then wrap it around the wire. 


And, here you have a mini flower bouquet. 



There are still other ways on how to make use of your leftover thread, it just happened that All Soul's and All Saint's Days are coming so I wanted to make these pretty flowers for my loved ones.
