If you love Pinterest as much as I do, then you’ve probably seen these super cute flower pins. I decided to make my own to add some pizzazz to my spring wardrobe, and here’s how to do it!
What you need: one and half feet of lace ribbon, thread (the color of your lace ribbon), needle, E6000 glue, scissors, felt (the color of your lace ribbon), clip, a pin with a flat back, and something to put in the center of the flower (I used three large pearls, you can use a button or gem, basically anything you want).
Thread your needle. Then start sewing the base of your ribbon. Your stitches don’t need to be perfect. After every couple of inches pull on the needle, so your ribbon scrunches up.
Once you’ve stitched and scrunched up the whole length of your ribbon, tie a couple of knots and cut off the excess thread.
Dab a small amount of glue on one of the ends of your ribbon. Then put the other end on top of the ribbon; secure it with a clip. When it dries remove the clip.
Cut out a circle of felt; I traced my spool of thread to get my circle. Also cut out a small rectangle; it should be able to cover the flat backed pin.
Glue your circle of felt to the back of the flower.
After your circle has dried, glue your flat backed pin on it. Then, glue on the small rectangle to cover the flat part of your pin, still leaving the clasp and the pin part exposed.
When the back of your flower has completely dried, flip it over and glue the center piece on. I used pearls, but you can use just about anything. Wait until the center of your flower has dried before you wear it. This is super cute, and it doesn’t take long to make! This is a terrific addition to any spring look!
