you will sew the leaves into position (SEE Pic)ย  to the basket using the yarn tails and a yarn needle. You can arrange them however you like, but I suggest placing them equally around the sides of the basket for balance.

You can hang the basket in a few ways.
With a small suction cup, you will insert it through the hanging loop and press it firmly to your car window or any other smooth surface.
Position your small crocheted Sunflowers and sew through the BROWN center to the SOIL to ensure they are secured to the whole piece.
