17 The Star Flower Tutorial

 Janae, I wasn't kidding when I was talking on the phone with you yesterday. I need you to get married and have a baby, and I need that baby to be a girl. That way we can obsessively make baby headbands together! Muahahaha! Ok maybe I can wait. Impatiently though. So until that time. Jade and Julianna. I know your spoiled, and I will make these for your girls anyways but I thought I would give you a tutorial because I think their fun to make. (but I'm flower making fool!)

So instead of going to bed the other night like I should have, I made up this little number. So whatcha gonna do is: 

Cut out 3 large flowers and 3 medium flowers from your fabric of choice.

Fold the circle in half, and then in half again....

Then cut both sides into a point so it looks like this...

You should have 4 layers. Take the top layer and pull it to the left while taking the second layer and pull it to the right....

So it fans out and looks like this....

Snip a tiny off the bottom, and then your are going to put a dab of glue there...

And then glue onto a felt circle that's 2/3 the size of your original large circle...

The 3 large circles should make the bottom layer. Then repeat the steps with the medium circles on glue on top of your first layer.

Then glue on a button and attach to headband or whatever your little hearts desire :)

 Can you believe this little munchkin is one? Where did the time go!
