How To Make an Adorable Bouquet of Flowers Using Scraps of Yarn.
Are you looking for an original and inexpensive gift to make for the mistress of your children?
A do-it-yourself gift that will make her very happy?
Here's a gift she'll love!
Unlike a classic bouquet of flowers, she can keep this one for as long as she wants!
It looks complicated like that, but don't worry, it's super easy to do!
With a little practice, it only takes a few minutes. Look :
What you need
- yellow wool
- green wool
- deformable green chenille stems
- fabric glue (hot glue gun)
- scissors
- a fork
How to do
1. Gather the materials.
2. Place the rod on the side of the fork.
3. Wrap yellow wool around the fork and stem. Leave a piece of stem about 3 cm tall.
4. Wrap the wire about 25 to 30 times around the fork.
5. Bend the long green rod 90 ° around the wire. Wind the small end of the stem 3 times on itself, to properly hang the flower and the stem. Be careful not to let a piece of rod protrude.
6. Cut a 10cm piece of green wool and tie it around the base of the flower. Remove the yellow wool from the fork.
7. Carefully tie the green wool, with 2 knots to hold it together.
8. Cut off the ends of the green wool.
9. Cut a 20 cm piece of green wool. Add a dot of glue near the green knot and secure it here. Wrap the green wool around the flower from the knot to the base of the stem. Tighten well so that no more yellow wool is seen.
10. When there is about 1/2 cm of wool left, secure the thread to the base of the flower with a dot of glue.
11. Cut the loops of yellow wool with scissors.
12. Use a fork to untangle the threads.
13. Ruffle the yellow wool and remove any excess threads.
14. Undo some of the woolen threads to give your dandelion a more "crumpled" look.
Results
And There you go ! You have made a bouquet of flowers with bits of yarn :-)
Nice and original as a gift, isn't it?
It only remains to make ten to form a real bouquet.
For denser dandelion pom poms, just wrap more yarn around the fork.
