I quickly searched the internet for a pattern, ended up using this one
(but there are tons out there so use any that you like)
and in less than 5 minutes, had made two!
and in less than 5 minutes, had made two!
They require only 5 simple things that you probably already have in your house and are super easy to make!
Here is all you need:
- 1 sheet scrapbook paper
- a flower pattern
- scissors
- a glue gun
- buttons
Step 1- Trace and cut out two of each type of paper flower.
Step 2- Make a small fold in the center of each flower in order to make them have a more 3D effect. Turn the flower a quarter of a turn and make another fold.
Step 3- Pick out a large button to match each paper.
Step 4- Put a dot of hot glue in the center of one flower then press the second on top- shifting it just enough so that the petals are not directly on top of each other.
Step 5- Gently pull on the top layer of petals to separate them from
the bottom layer and give them a little volume.
The ideas for these cuties are endless!
I made a few to go on my shutter fireplace screen
along with some old pics.
I also made a few to go on my inspiration board above my craft table
and I plan to use them for a baby shower I'm helping with soon.
What a cute, inexpensive, and easy decoration!
