Miniature Felt Roses
Not sure what to do with leftover felt pieces? Make mini felt roses! After making some larger roses, we had several pieces of felt left over; and since we hate to throw away materials, we used the scraps to make these miniature roses. They can be used for a hostess corsage, gift wrap décor, or to spruce up anything you wish.
Supplies & Tools:
- Felt scraps: red, green, light green
- Mini hot glue gun & glue sticks
- Florist wire (26 or 28 gauge)
- Wire cutters
- Scissors
- Ruler
Directions:
- Cut a piece of wire about 10–11 inches long using wire cutters. Set wire cutters aside.
- Fold the wire in half and twist wire around itself.
- Take red felt and cut into small crescent strips.
- Place the folded end of the wire at one end of the felt strip.
- Apply a small dot of glue and begin rolling the felt.
- Carefully roll the felt, gluing as you roll the flower. Use caution as the glue is very hot.
- Once finished, cut small leaf shapes from green felt and glue under the flower.
- Make several and wrap them together to form garland or cluster together to make a hostess corsage.
