Hi there!
Nice to be here today, to share a quick and easy project I made for my Mother-in-Law. She is an older Mum and loves anything decorative and ornamental. She really enjoyed these.
I used the good old Helmar 450, for its, fast drying properties, as well as the fact it works well and holds fast on fabric.
So here is what I created using some very pretty flowers from My stash. Prima I believe! and various other floral decorative bits I could find!
and heres how the back is contructed, forming the brooch aspect of this flower......
The whole arrangement is glued and constructed on this little square of felt fabric. Plenty of glue, lots of drying time, very easy!
And here are the other ones in the set......
and I made a little box to house them all.....and very simply decorated the front with some fussy cut flowers and a belly band to hold it all together.
I layered some pretty organza fabric inside and layed all the flower pins inside. So very pretty!
So aside from the drying time, (which happened mostly in the box!) It took longer to select the goodies I wanted to use, than it did to create the gift.
Thanks for stopping by today
