I have been making lots of these ruffled rose/poppy flowers for some hats for our shop lately and thought I would do a littl tutorial. They are super easy to make and look cute on just about anything.
Supplies :
Polyester material
scissors
candle
button or beads
needle and thread
Step 1: Free hand cut out circles of polyester material. Vary the sizes to create different size petals.
Step 2: Hold raw edge of circle of candle flame. After a few seconds you will se the edges seal and start to curl a little. Continue around entire petal and your other peices
Step 3: Place your petals on top of eachother by size and secure with buttons or beads using your needle and thread.
Step 4: Apply to whatever you choose. It looks cute on a pin that you can stick on any sweater or headband you want. We have been putting them on some top knot baby hats!
Its super easy to whip up a bunch of these in one sitting. Each flower takes about 5 min. to make. I think they make the perfect affordable, cute and easy christmas gift for a friend. Happy crafting.
