I've been seeing rosettes all over the place lately and love them! So decided to make some of my own and will show you how to do it too! It's extremely easy and a good way to use up your fabric scraps.
What you'll need:
- Bobby pins-I got some from a craft store that are more flat than normal bobby pins, but don't see why you could use regular bobby pins
- 1" by 12" piece scrap of fabric (smaller if you want smaller rosettes)
- Glue Gun
1) Fold your piece of fabric in half so that the one inch edge will be a half inch and glue with glue gun (just one end of the fabric)
2) Fold your piece of fabric in half again and glue (will be a quarter of an inch wide)
3) Twist a few inches of your fabric up. Use the quarter inch end as a small base, but a dab of glue there and start wrapping your twirled fabric in a circle (like in the picture below)
4) Keep twirling and wrapping around the circle making sure to secure with a dab of hot glue every 1/4-1/3 of the way around the circle
5) When you get toward the end leave about an inch of fabric and glue it underneath the rosette
6) Next put a dab of glue on the back of your rosette and place your bobby pin in the glue
7) Clip the tail off of your rosette with your scissors
And you're done! Make as many as you want in coordinating colors and wear them yourself or give them as gifts.
