I recently found this statement, when I was looking for orchid's symbolism and I was surprised to find out that orchids are flowers of Aquarius sign, which is my sign.....by the way ;)
That's why, I dedicated this post and my orchid creations to all Aquarius friends, whom their spirit is always exuberant and nonconformist.
Mid-winter, missing the spring and the only color that caught my attention were orchids from my window. Because they are the only flowers that bloom every winter in my house, I realised that I don't have these beautifull flowers in my " crochet garden "
So, here there are :
Graceful and almost artistic, orchid flowers represents love, beauty, loyalty and power.
They are part of the largest plant family in the world and they cand vary in size and colors, as my crochet orchids.
Wild orchids can be found in the highest mountains, but also in the plains at the sea level.
Now, the wild orchid grown up in my collection and it's pink as it seems that is the favourite orchids of Aquarius sign.
As I said before, on my window there are some orchids, but I have only a few colors ( white, yellow, pink and purple ); I would love to have a larger space and collect many more; until then, I have "collected" beautifull crochet orchids that can be worn as necklaces or brooches, if you'll I attach a safety pin....it's so simple and easier to have 2 in 1 accesories.
I've selected 7 colors which I have seemed most representative for orchids.
Pink, again pink, I couldn't set at one model so I've made to different pink orchids, that represents joy and happiness
The yellow one stands for friendship and new beginnings
Lavender orchid symbolizes grace and feminine beauty
The purple one as the color of royalty.
And the orange orchid which is full of pride and boldness
I couldn't finish my collection without a babywearing necklace. With bright and vibrant colors of pink and green and tiny orchids, this necklace will be a lovely accesory for breastfeeding moms....but not only
I hope you enjoyed my orchids creations and for more pictures and details, please visit my FB page.
