How To: Felt Flowers

I love decorating for fall. All seasons really, but I love my fall decorations best.

My really boring wreath needed to be spiced up. So I made this here wreath for my door.

I am so proud of my self.

I follow lots of craft blogs and I want to make everything but I usually don’t. There are so many fun crafts that I just don’t know where to start.

I’m so glad I decided to jump on this one.

Here is where I got the idea and here is the felt flower tutorial I used.

Helpful Tips:

• When tracing your circles, use a light-colored writing utensil. I used a black permanent marker and I had to trim a few of my flowers because you could see it or see through it.
• Have atleast 5 glue sticks on hand. I kept underestimating how many I would need so I had to keep running downstairs to get more. Good workout, bad planning.
• I used two different sized circles to have different sized flowers. I only used four sheets of felt and I had six flowers left over.

The best part?  This project cost me a total $3.00.

The large flower was on clearance for $.99 and the felt was $.34 each. I already had all of the supplies and the wreath.  I did notice that they have the same wreaths at Jo-Ann’s for $3.99 if you wanted to get one.

I would love to see your work. Email me pictures and I will feature them on my blog. It doesn’t have to be a felt flower craft, anything Fall related would be great.

 Yes, some people do actually read it. Just not enough for me to get paid for it. Dang!

 Happy Crafting!
