Fabric Flowers--How To

Pin It

It occurred to me, while checking out my friend Lila's awesome blog, that I never actually showed you how to make the the fabric flowers.  I showed you how to make the hairbands here.....

So, I'd like to show you now.  Ok?

Supplies needed:
2 inch fabric strips--depending on the look you want, either tear them or cut them.
hot glue--my best friend

Step 1:  ok, so this would be your fabric strip.

Step 2:  Tie a knot at the of the strip, making the "bud".
Step 3:  Start twisting and wrapping your fabric, gluing as you go along.  




Step 4:  When you reach the end, glue the fabric behind the flower.
Step 5:  Well, there's really not one....you're done!!!  So make a few more and work on a hairband, clippy, or in the case of my super creative friend Lila, wall art!
