Step 5

For the manufacture of felt flowers, cut a circle of felt paper (it need not be perfect). Once the circle cut, cut inside, forming a spiral. The end of the spiral (located toward the center of the circle of felt) should form a small circle. This is the basis for the closing of the flower and glue it to the crown.

Tips and Tricks

  • To get a nice ring, do not hesitate to crush the two ends of the noodles are well glued together before enrolling with tape.
  • Easily wrap your fabric, especially if it is structured to roll without sticking your band. Once you have found, like the wind, so that the pattern repeat, pull down, stick the fabric, re-packaging and stick the end of the tape on the noodle.
  • If you find it difficult to wrap a strip of fabric on some circle, you can print on your crown and wrap your ribbons on a flat surface. The crown is to regain its shape when the pressure is released.
  • The felt flowers are simple to make. To diversify, you can cut circles of different sizes to get different sizes.
  • You can also use 2 sheets of felt sleeves to achieve bicolored flowers.
  • For the final assembly, when the crown lie on a table, it is not aware of go spaces to fill. Since they will be hung for decoration, make it the same for the decoration!
  • To accompany my Halloween wreath I bought two pumpkins I slipped into a clinging to lace patterns. Finally, I have a knot on the tails. That's it!
