Fabric Flower 1 - Pointy 5 petal flower

This is a very fast and easy flower to make.

You can put a lined alligator clip on the back for a clippie.
I've attached mine on a ribbon for another propose. I'll
post a picture later on to show you.



Materials: -Fabric - cut into 5 Squares mine are 6 x 6 cm
-Lighter or candle to heat seal the edges
-Needle and thread
-Tweezers (optional) I just found it was easier
-for me to hold and make the folding more crisp
-Gem for the center

Poinsettia clippie instructions

A poinsettia clippie

I'm pretty new at writing a blog so I'll keep this as simple as possible. This Blog was created so that I can display some of my craft projects and perhaps show how some of the crafts are done.

Since Christmas is around the corner I though I'd start off by show you the project that I'm working on now. A poinsettia clippie. It's takes about 5 - 10 mins, a really easy craft project to do with your kids.






Materials: - Poinsettia flower (get at Wal-mart or the dollar stores)
- Glue gun with glue of course ;)
- 1 alligator clip
- a piece of ribbon (11cm) to line the alligator clip
- a piece of non slip grip (drawer liners will do) 0.5 cm x 2.5cm
- a lighter to heat seal the ends of the ribbon so it doesn't fray

Let's begin
