A year ago I shared this post where I upcyled an old dome clock into a Beauty and the Beast inspired rose cloche. I'm adding on to the theme with another cloche, this time solidly filled with fat red roses, check it out:

Cloche
I found this really large cloche at Goodwill for $5.99 and snapped it up! I wasn't sure at first how I would use it, but I really liked how my first rose cloche turned out and wanted to complement it somehow.
Red Roses
I have had this stash of red roses forever after finding them attached to a wreath at a garage sale. I wasn't interested in the wreath at all but for only .25 (yes, one quarter) I bought the wreath just for the roses! 😁
The roses are really well made, large in size and with rich coloring. It was one of those cases where they were too perfect to use and I loved just having them available... so never ended up doing anything with them. But sitting in a bin was just a waste of their beauty, so why not 'store' them in a cloche? This way I'm using them in my decor, but also not using them, see? They are kind of just still in storage if you think about it. Now I can feel like I'm using them but also enjoy them 😉
I spray painted the wooden base gold and stuffed the interior with my fabric roses.
On it's own, the rose stuffed cloche looks a bit weird...
...but paired with my single rose it makes a nice set.
And that's how I put together my second rose cloche.
Tell me fellow crafters; do you use all of your supplies or is some of your stash really just for decorating your craft space? I would love to see pics!
