Fabric flowers are everywhere these days, and for good reason! They're so simple to make, and you almost can't go wrong if you've got a few simple tricks up your sleeve. And on top of that, if you use felt, (even inexpensive acrylic craft felt like I've used here), it's so easy to cut and holds it shape well, which makes you look good too! I'm not saying this is quick, yes it will take a few good hours, but it's time well spent, and if you make two or more at a time, it's time really well spent!
General How-To:
You'll Need:
- a 6" diameter styrofoam ball, or even 1/2 a styrofoam ball depending on your container.
- four types of felt flowers, in four complimentary colors, instructions below
- hot glue gun
- a suitable pot whose mouth is just slightly smaller than the diameter of your ball
