Tissue Cherry-Blossom Tree - Martha Stewart Kids. DIY Flower Halo – HonestlyWTF. You’ll start by cutting 2 circles from the piece of felt at approximately 2″ in diameter. Form the wires of your halo by molding and bending each piece into a half circle. Lay the two half circles opposite of each other to create a single circle, laying it over the top of your head to check the fit. Wrap floral tape over 2 sections of overlapping wire at 11 o’clock and 3 o’clock. Trim any overlapping pieces with the wire cutters.

How to :: Loopy Felt Flower by Sister Diane | If there ever was a classic instant-gratification craft, it’s the venerable felt flower. I was playing around one day, and stumbled upon this method for making an interesting zinnia-style design.

Hope you like! First, you need some strips of felt. I’m using a variety of widths here: 2 1/4″, 1 3/4″ and 1 1/2″. Fold a strip in half lengthwise. Then, cut a series of slits into the folded edge. Snip your way along about 6″ of the strip, and leave any excess attached for now. Now, thread up a sewing needle with about 18″ of doubled thread, and tie a secure knot in the end. (I should add: I’m using contrasting thread here for visibility. As you sew, pull on the thread to gather the strip. Take a couple little tack stitches through the end of the gathers to lock them in place. Now, fold the flower in half, matching the two ends as shown.

Gently flatten the flower and adjust the gathers. Glue that felt circle to the back of the flower with tacky glue. Kristin.
