It’s official, I decided to jump on the rosette bandwagon! I have seen these amazing fabric flowers on everything from headbands, rings, and purses, to picture frames, t-shirts, and necklaces. Then my sister tells me that she is opening up an Etsy shop to sell her version of these amazing flowers (trust me hers are way cuter and sturdier than mine) so I will let you know as soon as she is up and running.
After absorbing all of this wonderful inspiration this is how mine turned out!!
I cut some fabric into strips and twisted the strips around a barbeque skewer to make my flowers. Then I hand stitched some of the pieces of the flower together so that they wouldn’t fall apart. Lastly I used some hot glue to attach felt to the backs.
I couldn’t decide what to do with my pretty little flowers and then I remembered I had a stash of old magnets that I could cut up and glue to the backs….
I love how they turned out!!
What is the best use that you have seen for these flowers?

These are darling, Lacie! I really do love how you made them into magnets! So creative!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know there was a bandwagon to jump on, but these are adorable! I would think they would also look great on a headband... that's been done I'm sure :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen these yet actually, but they look so cute! =]
ReplyDeletethose are so cute, i keep thinking I just need to try the flowery headbands but not quite brave enough yet :) I do like the flower magnet approach however that I can pull off :) And to answer your question my new house is amazing, now I just need someone to help me clean it every week :) Our yard goes in next week so that will help with the dust a little :I when you head this way you need to come see me for sure!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, now that is CUTE!!!! I love them as magnets (what a great idea!) Love it girl!!
ReplyDeletethese are so cute! they would glam-up a journal or scrapbook. of course flowers on blouses and tshirts seem to be all the rage right now, could sew 3 or so on a neckline - large one in center and a small one on each side or maybe would look better w/2 small ones on each side of the larger one....can't wait to try.
ReplyDeleteNeat, those are adorable - off to find a tutorial so I can try my hand at them!
