Floral Sunglasses

It's officially summer, right? Or as we prefer to call it in Strawberry land, the season of the SUN...
 sunSHINE, sunTAN, sunGLASSES, sun.. er.. ice cream? 
You may have noticed we're having a slighly unhealthy love affair with sunnies of late. Big ones, round ones, pink ones, elephant ones, but flowery ones?  Hold the phone! Our new fancy pants sunglasses holder appeared to be lacking in the floral department, so we thought why not try a little DIY!

You Will Need:
Sunglasses
Fabric/Ceramic Flowers (about half an inch in size)
Super Glue

Take your first flower, which we carefully selected out of the various shades of pink available (well it is our favourite colour, in case you hadn't realised!) We chose to use fabric flowers but you could also use clay or resin flowers if you're feeling exceptionally crafty!

Turn over the first flower and squeeze a bobble of your glue onto the centre.

Carefully place the newly-glued flower onto your desired location. We started at the corner because we're organised like that. BOOM.

Rinse and repeat. Oh hang on that's shampoo isn't it...

Then place the next flower, preferably next to the first one. Or not. Let your creativity fly.

Keep up the good work and soon enough the sunglasses will be all flowered up!

Don't forget to add a cheeky finishing touch to the nose bridge!

Leave them to dry for at least an hour or you'll end up with a very flowery face!

Now all we need is for Mr Sunshine to stick around for a little while longer!
