You Will Need (6 things)

  • lots of colors of Felt (make sure you get yellow for the flower center)
  • Scissors
  • Paper and 5 quarters (to make the template)
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Needle & Thread
  • Hair Clip(s) , or pins for the backing

Steps (12 steps, 40 minutes)

  1. 1

    Make the template. You need a five petal flower. If like me, you can't freehand anything, quarters work greeeaat!

  2. 2

    Cut 4 flowers (per hair clip) and 2 yellow circles for the center.

  3. 3

    The Tough part. O.k, not really.

  4. 4

    It's just like folding a cardboard box,

  5. 5

    but with felt, and fake petals.

  6. 6

    When its all folded, it should look like this...
    one half of each petal should be showing.

  7. 7

    Sew all petals together.

  8. 8

    Sew both yellow circles together

  9. 9

    It will look like this

  10. 10

    Sew flower center onto flower.
    Make sure to only sew through the first layer of the center.
    You don't want to see the stitches.

  11. 11

    Hot glue a hair clip or a pin to the back of the flower.

  12. 12

    Make a lot so they match all your outfits,
    then wear them around and look so so cute.

    p.s. Use this template with fabric flowers, and buttons as the center.

    The fabric edges will fray, and you will be the coolest girl on the block.
