felt flowers.

First flower:


take a strip (about 2 inches wide)
fold in half...add a strip of hot glue

and pinch just that top part together.

then take your scissors and snip every half inch (more or less according to what you want)

then I made a circle. it's easier to cut out a circle of felt and hot glue it around...which I did right after doing this one..

then I just hot glued layers on top of each other.

when I got to the middle...I just snipped off one little piece and hot glued it down for the center.

then added a clip on back



now with my leftovers...I took them and just rolled them up.

it makes it a little taller...but very pretty.


two hot glued next to each other.





and instead of folding over...you can leave them in a strip...and snip and roll...
cheri makes a beautfiul one...HERE (for a belt...but easily made for hair)

let's face it...she's makes a beautfiul everything!
the snippin and rollin in action

  4. How funny! I was just at the fabric store tonight to buy felt and was going to try to figure out how to make some red and pink flower for Valentines Day. Now I don't have to figure it out, I can just use this tutorial! Thanks for sharing!
