Well today I was inspired to do some kind of craft..no not a Christmas craft, more of something for me! I have seen these cute little flower pins in a few stores and just love them! Added to a sweater, jacket or a hat I think they are adorable. I saw an old post on another blog about making them (if you know the blog let me know I want to give them credit) and thought I want to try that. They turned out sooo cute and I can't wait to wear them (not all together) just thought I should clear that up.
Here is what you will need:
A flower template (I made my own) 5 petals
Glue gun
Felt (one piece will do 1 rosette)
Pins
That's it..let's get started!
 |
| Cut a template..I just freehanded mine |
 |
| Cut 7 pieces from your felt square and 1 circle (this will be the base) |
 |
| Fold in half twice and snip the end off to make it flat |
 |
| Hot glue onto the base around the edge first and then the middle |
 |
| After all 7 have been glued turn it over and glue your pin on the back |
 |
| The finished product! Snip the ends to even it up if you would like |
 |
| I made all 5 of these in a short amount of time and it cost me about $1.00 a piece |
 |
| Added to a cute black sweater! Loove it!! |
 |
| Just adds a little extra to a simple jacket.. |
I hope you have been inspired to make something pretty!! Have a wonderful Christmas!
Hey, I'm glad you stopped by my blog, I love new visitors. I must say after seeing your way too cute blog that we might just be kindred spirits girlfriend. Hahaha. I have been wanting to make some of those felt flowers that you did so beautifully, and I also made a coffee filter wreath this year. Too funny! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas.
