frog and water lilly double brooch

Frog and water lily crochet wire double brooch
See brooches for sale in my shop >
One of a kind double brooch featuring a spotted frog sitting on a lily pad and a pretty water lily flower.

I created the brooches by crocheting coloured copper wire. The frog has tiny jade and peridot stones on his back, a tiny spotted dalmation jasper eye and his toes are green moss agate stones. The frog is perched on a lily pad and I crochet a length of wire for the stalk. On the other end of the stalk is the lily flower which has citrine stones in its centre. The frog brooch has two silver plated tie tac style brooch pins on the back and the water lily has one silver plated tie tac brooch pin.

The frog sitting on his lily pad brooch measures 3.5cm (1.4 in) wide, 2.5cm (1 in) tall and the lily pad protrudes out about 3cm (1.2 in). The water lily brooch measures about 3cm (1.2 in) wide, 1.5cm (0.6 in) tall and the petals protrude outward about 2cm (0.8 in). The stalk connecting the brooches is about 5cm (2 in) long.
