I love whimsical, fun, girlie accessories. Most summer days I can be found with a fun fabric flower tucked up in my hair. The other day I got to thinking, why can't I wear flowers in my hair in the winter too? That thought gave birth to this project. (Kinda like Mary gave birth to the baby Jesus... See what I did there? I totally make this post about the baby Jesus.)
Are you interested in your very own holiday flower? Here's how to make your own...
Supplies:
Fabric Christmas Flowers (I got mine at the Dollar Store)
Extra Large Bobby Pin
Felt
Hot Glue Gun
Scissors (Not Shown)
Step 1:
Cut the flower away from the stem and cut two circles out of the felt, large enough to cover the plastic portion of the underside of the flower.
Step 2:
Hot glue on felt circle to the underside of the flower.
Step 3:
Sandwich one half of the bobby pin between the two pieces of felt. The layers should be flower, felt, 1/2 bobby pin, other piece of felt, other half of bobby pin. Hot glue the two pieces of felt together.
Step 4:
Marvel at your beautiful hair piece.
This is something that can be worn anywhere from a casual day at home, to the office, or even to a holiday cocktail party. Stop by Simple Moments Stick and let me know where you wore your flower. I'd love to see pictures if any of you make one too!
