flaura & flily


Because we are not interested in spending sixty cash monies on fabric flowers, but had already fallen in love, Lily and I decided to make some flower pins at home. diy or die, as they say. the first attempt was fruitful. We both recognized areas where we can improve the design on the next go-round, and we'll work to perfect the system as we go. About $10 at Joann's fabrics, can get you enough supplies to make between 5-7 flower pins.

Here is what you need:
felt
stiff fabric in the color of your choosing
needle & thread
pin backing
and a hot glue gun (or you can just dew the pin-backing onto the flower)
