Fabric Flowers




Materials Needed:

Some sort of material (the ones above are tshirts)
Glue (I used Fabri-Tak)

Procedure:

These took me a bit to get down. I watched countless videos on how to do this, then one day it just clicked.
Start cutting thin strips (about 2 inches or so) of material (t-shirts), then fold it over long ways.
Fold again until you have a thin string.
Start rolling and twisting out and secure with glue as you go.

You can add to pony tail holders, hair clips and I even embellished a picture frame for Christmas:


Paper Roses #2


Materials Needed:
(see project #3 for more details)
Scissors
Construction paper or any other kind that you like with designs even.

Procedure:
Cut spiral circles
Begin rolling from the end into the center
When done, let go and it will twirl up beautifully.
Glue down to center of spiral for a secure set.

I embellished picture frames for Christmas gifts last year:

Paper Flowers!!!


Don't know what I am gonna do with them...maybe a wreath, or picture frame enhancements, or door hanger enhancements? Pinterest...where have you been all my life?
Materials:
Construction paper or any kind of paper whatever color you want.
Scissors
Hot Glue (optional)

How To:
Cut out squares in different sizes.
Cut spirals into the squares making the square circle.
Roll up from the outside all the way to the inside.
Let go!
It will transform to the pictures above!
I glued the middle section on the bottom to use like a "stand"

My 8 year old son did the blue flowers above....yes they are that easy!! :)
