I love DIY and wanted to share this DIY felt flower tutorial with all of you, I call this the easiest felt flower tutorial because it really is! Just read on to find out why!
Felt flowers are so easy to make and can make great home decor. Felt comes in lots of beautiful colors, it is very inexpensive also. In Walmart, it is available for 33 cents a sheet. I’m sure if you buy it in bulk, you can get it even cheaper.
You can find felt sheets in any craft store. Amazon also has a wide variety of colors in felt. I love working with felt, it’s soft and can be made into so many beautiful and useful things.
There are many different kinds of flowers that you can make using felt. And all of them are gorgeous! I just chose the easiest one to share.
These are easy enough for kids to make, provided they are old enough to handle a hot glue gun. I am guessing that fabric glue could be used too but I have not tried. Please do let me know if you have tried and it worked for you.
Make them in any color and even different sizes. I love these because they can be used to make beautiful wreaths, if you add a stem you can use them in flower vases. I just gathered sticks from my backyard and used them as stems.
Supplies needed for the felt flower DIY:
Felt in different colors
Scissors
Hot glue glue
If you are adding stems, you could just gather some sticks from your garden as I did!
Other options that would work are floral wire or pipe cleaners.
How do you make them?
- Cut out rectangular shapes from your felt sheet. Small rectangles will yield small flowers, bigger rectangles will yield bigger flowers.
2.Fold the rectangle in half lengthwise. Using the glue gun, glue down the open side of the rectangle.
3.Using scissors cut lines at regular intervals on the folded side but do not cut all the way, leave about 1/2 inch on the other side.
4.From one side, start rolling your rectangle gluing as you go.
5.To attach the stem, glue it as you start rolling in the above step. Or you could just add some glue on one end of the stick/pipe cleaner/wire and stick it in the base of the flower.
Notes
If you do not use a stem, glue your roses onto your wreath, picture frame, or whatever you make.
That’s it! Easy and beautiful!
