My first flower clip "tutorial"

3/3/2011

Ok so it's not very "tutorial" ish cuz it's hard to take pictures in the midst of it all but I have some pictures to help describe how to do it.

Super easy!
Picture
Ok so you get: flowers, (I got mine from Michael's cuz they give teacher discounts but any fake flowers will work) felt pieces, (again at Michael's for .29 each), hot glue, any embellishments, (jewels and such) and hair clips from anywhere.
Picture
SO first, you cut the flowers down to their stubs.

Hot glue a piece of felt at least 1 inch around, and big enough for the clip to fit on, to the flower stub.

After you have hot glued the felt to the flower, simply hot glue the clip to the felt.

Now don't be silly like me and forget to only glue the ONE side, open the clip and wait for it to cool before closing it so it can't accidentally stick to itself and therefore become unusable.
Picture
I ended up putting smaller flowers inside bigger ones on occasion, to add some "oomph". Looks pretty good eh?
Picture
After 5 hours I had these 9 (I stopped to take breaks and to wait for things to cool, no worries, it doesn't actually take that long)
Picture
And now I've added the greens and the big orange one, as well as a purple/white/yellow rose one.
Picture
These are all the flowers I still have left to use later on! I've not been this excited for a project in a long time, and I have tons more I want to do once summer starts! If anyone has any questions, or anything's unclear, please comment and I will answer them!
