You can increase the size of the roses by using bigger circles. The roses can be used as a brooch for a sweater or glued onto a headband.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • any size Cup
  • 1 elmers Glue
  • 1 Scissors
  • 1 Hair Clip(s)
  • 2 Felt pieces
  • any Pen(s)

Steps (12 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Use a cup as a guide and trace a circle on your first sheet of felt.
    Then flip over your cup and trace a smaller circle on your second sheet of felt.

  2. 2

    Now cut out those two circles.

  3. 3

    Starting from the outside, cut in a spiral motion towards the middle of the circle.

  4. 4

    Repeat with your second circle and you should have something that looks like this.

  5. 5

    Again, working from the outside in...twist and twirl your felt into a rose shape.
    (see picture as guide if needed)

  6. 6

    Add glue to the last few twirls of your rose, and seal with extra felt from the "tail".

    (see image as guide)

  7. 7

    Repeat twirling with the second rose...

  8. 8

    and glue only for the last few twirls...

  9. 9

    Now cut out a small rectangle of felt to cover your hair-clip with.

  10. 10

    Glue the rectangle onto the hair-clip, then apply more glue to stick on the roses.

  11. 11

    Stick on your roses as desired and let dry.
    *Hint-let your hair-clip dry while snapped shut or else there will be a gap between your roses.

  12. 12

    Clip in your hair!
    You can add more roses, or use bigger roses to make a bolder statement.
    Felt leaves may also be used as added decoration.
