Felt Flowers

Good morning Joy here. I am enjoying a few extra days holiday on my half-term. This has given me lots of time to be crafty. 

I love making flowers and the felt ones I am making today are my new favourites.

You will need;

• a square of felt
• a plastic cup
• pencil
• scissors
• hot glue gun
• safety pin

Draw 6 circles on the felt, using the plastic cup as your template.

 
 

Draw 1 more circle that is slightly smaller than the others

 

Fold one circle in half.

 

Fold the right hand side to the middle

 

Fold the left hand side behind

 

Apply a little hot glue into the bottom of the folds. Place the 6 petals evenly onto the remaining smaller circle, securing with hot glue gun. Glue a button to the centre.

 

Stitch a safety pin to the back to make it into a brooch or attach to a hair band for an attractive hair accessory.

 
Have fun making them in different colours to match all your outfits.

Joy xxx
