You Will Need (7 things)

  • Batting

  • Straight Pins
  • Glue Gun
  • Small Clay Pot Or Bowl(s)
  • Felting Needle
  • Sponge

Steps (4 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Center: Take a bat of roving, make a nice sized ball, punch into itself with your needlefeling needle. Cover with the center colour, keep poking and stabbing until you have your desired look.

  2. 2

    Petals: Use a sponge to stab into. Lay out as many petals as you need, I use about double the length of the desired petal because you'll fold it over and continue felting for your chosen shape and thickness.

  3. 3

    Assemble: Felt the petals around the center ball, when all are on, put a nice glob of hot glue at the bottom of the container to hold your flower in the pot.

  4. 4

    Decorate: With straight pins.
