I had this Vintag-ish Fabric that I had no idea what to make out of. It was really cheap, but so cute & I felt like it was so special & I wanted to make something really special out of it.

So I made these two Brooches to wear on my shirt or on my bags :)

You Will Need (6 things)

  • Pin Or Clip Piece
  • Felt Scraps
  • Felt Scraps
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Fabric
  • Hot Glue Gun

Steps (9 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut out a length of fabric, I didnt really measure, it can be as thick or thin as you want it to within reason :)

    I'd say 2 -3 inches thick is just dandy

  2. 2

    Fold your fabric in half.

    This is kind of odd - very optional:
    I flat ironed it down to make it neat & have a crease.

  3. 3

    roll a bit together to make the center & glue it to keep it together after a few rolls.

  4. 4

    Take the fabric and twist it, but not too tight.
    Gluing regularly as you go along to the sides.

    Twist twist - glue. Twist twist - glue.

    o-o i duno if that makes sense

  5. 5

    After a while - it should look like this.

  6. 6

    Keep going - and glue the remainder down on the back like so.

    Glue any loose spots that you see

  7. 7

    Optional: glue a little bit of ribbon to make an accent piece.

  8. 8

    Glue a circle of scrap felt to support the flower & cover up the uglies :P

  9. 9

    Glue your clip or pin piece to the the circle of felt using a smaller piece of felt.

    And you're all done :D!
