This time all the steps are covered in the video link (click here)

Few Tips:
1. You can make flowers with single cut out sheet (which is quarter sheet of the full fabric sheet)
2. You can use same colors to make the flower bigger
3. Try to little glitter glue and let them dry to add more beauty to flowers, especially if its for kids.

Ribbon Bow on my Christmas Wreath.!

Its been a long gap and I am back with a small and easy bow making for Christmas holidays..!
I made a wreath which was easy using ready made decorations and then with a big bow to add to the beauty. Let's see how you can also make it for this Christmas..!


Materials Required:
Styrofoam as wreath base
Decorative Ornaments
Pins
Ribbons
I picked everything from Michaels and with a discount..!

Approximate cost : $20

How to Make:
1. Select the ribbon you want to cover the Styrofoam with and start wrapping around, securing with pins.


Step 2: Gather all the decorative things and pin it on the styrofoam. Do it for 3/4th part. We can use the rest part for a pretty bow

Step 3: Now let's make the bow. You can see an off-white bow in this wreath. Let me show how to make that.
Actually you can make bow in many different ways. I will show you 2 of the methods to make it.
This is the method I used to make both off-white and my 2 shaded bow on the wreathe.
