What do you do when your poinsettia from last Christmas still only have green leaves?
I think the plant is too beautiful to be thrown away.
So I helped it a little.
With some poinsettia dies (mine are from Spellbinders),
I made a couple of flowers/red leaves.
The tiny flowers in the middle are still missing.
Perhaps I will just add a little gold glitter.
