Financially challenged girls can still look stylish :P

Glue the flowers onto the felt in the pattern shown above. Leave to dry. Once dried, use a toothpick to apply some E6000 to the petals where they overlap to help ensure the flowers don’t flop about (won’t be an issue if you have a stiffer backing)
Cut off the excess backing so that it can’t be seen when viewed from the top.
Cut a length of cord that goes around your wrist. I strongly suggest making sure that the cord + extra length from the hook ends makes the bracelet snug around your wrist. I normally prefer loose jewellery so when I used the 1st length I cut (above), the flower piece would shift around when I moved because of its weight. Once I re-sized the cord, there was no problem.
Place the floral piece with flowers facing down and apply E6000 generously to the back in a straight-line. Press the cord onto the glue. I used 2 heavy weights to hold the 2 ends of the cord down as E6000 takes a while to dry. Leave for an hour or 2 and you’re all set to stun your friends with your new fashion piece :)
