There are tons of ways to make cute fabric flowers, here are some of my favorites!

Instructions

  1. Elegant Flower:

  2. Small 041 1304693271

    Use a compass, round object, or free hand to draw some circles of various sizes.

  3. Small 046 1304693333

    They don't have to be even!

  4. Small 040 1304693363

    Light a candle.

  5. Small 047 1304693419

    Carefully run the farbic circles above the flame (NOT THROUGH!) Test small peices of fabric first, as many fabrics will not work.

  6. Small 050 1304693490

    After all the circles have been through the candle, stack one on top of the other to form a flower.

  7. Small 051 1304693530

    Sew the very center back and forth. I added a little bead in the center for fun.

  8. Small 054 1304693572

    Lily:

  9. Cute out one large round circle (about half the size of desired flower) and lots of petals, ranging from large, to very small. I prefere to cut out large ones only, then cut smaller and smaller petals out as i go. Run all peices through a candle.

  10. Small 053 1304693783

    Glue the large petals on to the edge of the circle, and continue cutting smaller ones out, singing, and glueing till you finish.

  11. Small 054 1304693831

    It should ook somthing like this when it's done.

  12. Small 055 1304693848

    I glued a barret to the back, but a safty pin is good too. You can also glue a snap (you know, the pair of button lke things that snap together?) to the back, and a snap to a barret, back, backpack, or anything so you can change them out quickly.

  13. Yo Yo's my way:

  14. Small 081 1304693988

    Cut out a strip of fabric half as wide as you'd like the yo yo to be. Mine is about a foot long.

  15. Small 083 1304694042

    Hand stick the side close, and gather.

  16. Small 084 1304694081

    When the two raw adegs meet, sew together. Flip over and admire! Because there is a hole in the center, (yo yo's don't) you can change them out easily.

  17. I make a tiny flower puff, glued it to a bobby pin, and slid the new flower up the other side. It looked so cute!

  18. Small 092 1304694305

    Mix and match Flowers! Stick one on top of the other, stack them, mix them, try out different combos!

  19. Small 088 1304694372

    Elegant flower over my yo yo looks very chic.
