Spring is in the air!

Maybe it's because it sort of feels like Spring, but there are no flowers out, but I cannot stop making flowers. Crafting is one of those things that you don't do forever and then when you get on a roll, you just cant quit! There are such amazing tutorials online and I followed those to make these flowers. So fun and relaxing and inexpensive! Here's the link to the tutorial I used to make it: http://tatertotsandjello.blogspot.com/2010/11/1-felt-hair-clip-tutorial-makes-great.html Here's another one I put together this morning. I was supervising the kids while they were doing schoolwork and multitasking! I thought it would be so pretty on a simple Easter dress or on a bag or even a headband for spring! I may have to plan our Easter outfits around it! The directions call for 1.5" ribbon, but I really think you could size it down and use some cute 1" grosgrain for a little girl...or even for a big girl who wanted a smaller flower :)

I bet there are lots of people that could pull this off on a headband like I photographed above, but I'm certainly not one of them!! Maybe if it was smaller! It's so fun to try it all different ways. Here's the link to the tutorial:

Happy crafting!
