Fabric Wreath

I am ALL about Christmas right now and Decking the Halls! I made this wreath this year which was so easy and really pretty.



1. Take 1 fat quarter (I find that Stmapin Ups fat quarters are bigger than what you get at another fabric store it is 27x18) cut it in 2 inch strips

2. Take a round styro foam circle and hot glue the fabric to it. I Hot glued it on the back to start each piece and then wrapped it around and then glued again to end each piece.

3.Taking a different pattern make 15 flowers from the Fun Flowers Bigz L Die cut or your favorite flower die.

4. Using your paper piercer pierce a hole in the center and put in an antique brad.

5. I then wet my hand and roughed up the edges of the flower to fluff it out and give it a vintage look and sprayed it with fabric starch to stay.

6. Take about 4 inches of coordinating ribbon and glue it to the back to hang.

Simple Easy and a piece you can have for years to come, as well an easy gift.
If you have any questions please email or go to my website to order.

Poppy Flower Pin/Hair Clip

HI Stampers
I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving Feast! I know I did! I really enjoyed spending time with the ones I love and enjoying such Amazing food!! And now today I am decking the halls and ready for the man in the big red suit!

Today I have made a simple Poppy Flower with red and green felt for a fun Holiday pin or hair clip.

1. Using the Circles Die #2  use the 2 inch circle and cut out 5. Then use the Fun Flowers and cut out the little flower for the center of your poppy.

2. Using your hot glue gun put the glue in the center of the circle and fold. Do this with only 4 of the circles set 1 circle aside.

3.Then using the hot glue put it in the center of the half circle and fold again.

4. Hot glue each of the 4 folded circles onto the circle you set aside.

5.Next glue your small flower to the center of your poppy flower.

6. Finally glue your flower to the clip/pin.

Other side

Again your finished product! And you can do them in any color! Great for gifts and I am going to make a ton for my daughter!!! I found the pin/clip at Hobby Lobby and they are always on sale. I love the fact that they are a pin or hair clip. You can wear them on a hat, your purse, gloves, jacket, I could go on and on!
