Description

Instructions

  1. Small flowers2

    Cut little petal shapes out of various colors of ribbon. Make sure to use any ribbon besides cotton ribbon (ie. polyester, organza, etc.) or it will not work in the next step.

  2. Small flowers3

    Hold each petal over a candle flame, careful not to touch the ribbon to the flame. Let the edges melt and curl in slightly.

  3. Small flowers5

    Gather a few of your newly formed petals and arrange them into a flower shape by sewing them into place.

  4. Small flowers6

    Add beads to the center if you would like. That's all for these simple, ribbon flowers!
