I have to admit...I am addicted to making fabric flowers! They are sooo much FuN...so CuTe...and EaSy! I have seen them floating around online for sometime now...and thought they are just so AdoRable...so I decided to make some Halloween ones for my girls! My oldest daughter even loved helping make them. So...here's what I did:
I cut a 4" circle...3 1/2" circle...3" circle...and a 2 1/2" circle out of fabric... Then frayed the heck out of the edges with my fingernails. Then I stacked the fabric on-top of each other and sprayed the fabric with{ fabric starch}...then placed on cookie sheet and put in oven...under WARM heat until fabric dries.(only a couple of min.) {this will help keep its shape and help the edges to curl a little} Then I cut one 4" circle of tulle and added it to my 4 circles of fabric. I put my tulle in between the 2nd and 3rd layer of fabric. You don't have to add tulle...but I think it adds a little cuteness. :) Then sew the layers together. For the center...I just Mod Podged some fabric on the bottom of one of those glass rocks...and hot glued it to the middle. On the back...I hot glued a clippie and a piece of felt to the bottom... and there ya go!!! Super EaSy and Super CuTe!!
I made smaller ones for my little girl the same way...but I started my circles smaller and I used the smaller glass beads.
My daughter wears these hooked to her headband{ with the clippie}...and sitting a little crooked on her head. It looks sooo StinKin' CuTe!!
Wouldn't these make great presents...or...stocking stuffers????!!!!
super cute!!! i think i may try these for christmas!! thanks for the how to!

ReplyDeleteThose are so cute. I think I'll have to make some from my sweet girl. I bet some korker ribbons on the top right before the button would also be a cute little touch.
