Assembly

Using your tapestry needle and the tail from the cactus body, sew the bottom of the green cactus to the top opening of the brown pot. Secure tightly.
Attach the pink flower to the top side of the cactus using its tail.
With yellow thread and tapestry needle, embroider small ‘spikes’ onto the cactus body using French knots or tiny straight stitches. Add a small yellow stitch to the center of the pink flower.
Using jewelry pliers, adjust the prongs (if any) on your ring base to firmly hold the crocheted cactus pot. Alternatively, if your ring base has a flat pad, apply a small amount of strong fabric glue to the pad and carefully press the bottom of the crocheted pot onto it. Hold in place until set.
Allow the glue to fully cure before wearing.
