Dollar store Valentines




                                   Wow two posts in one day

                            This post is geared to Valentines ....

                                   Easy DIY... you may remember this from last year..




                                       Welcome !

          It's been years since I made these cute rosettes.

                      They have been popping up in blogland 
with Valentine Day coming up so I thought lets make some
                                       rosettes.....

                    They are very easy to make.

             Here are the supplies you will need:
                                     red felt
                                   green felt 
                                  a glue gun

     I cut out circles with my Sissix but                  you can use the lid off a canning jar.



Cut out your circle and then cut a spiral .
Start to roll your felt as seen here in the above picture.
then use your hot glue gun to secure rosette to the bottom.
Cut out your leaves with the green felt and glue them to the bottom of the rosette.

Here I have used mine with a $store cup and added bakers 
twine to a teabag and glued the twine to the rosette.

                              So cute !!
Now wouldn't you enjoy a cup of tea with a cute rosette
                     hanging off your cup.







When you are finished with the tea bag just cut off the string and you have a cute rosette to reuse or just display....






                     These would make cute inexpensive gifts!!

                         Hope you all are having a fantastic 
                                  creative day!!

                Thanks for stopping by and be sure to leave
                                     a comment.

  3. Wow! I remember making these when in Brownies but they were made with pink foam stuff. We attached a wire to them for the stem. I kept mine for years! :)
