Pretty In Pink

Hi Everyone!

Our church recently had a Pretty In Pink Ladies event and I was in charge of decorating a table. My theme was flowers. So many ideas were rolling through my head! I decided to go with a crafty route & make crepe paper flowers!

Here are a few pictures!











I used my Cricut machine to cut out the flower placemats. I had such a fun time!

Here's how I made the flowers:










Sew along the center of the streamer. It will begin to ruffle on its own! :)










Next, you fold in half on the stitch and begin to roll.










Once rolled, it will look like the flower below!




Secure the end with a dab of hot glue and then glue to a foam ball.

Tada! How cute & easy was that! I think I'm going to make a hot pink & zebra one for my oldest daughter's room next!





Have a great day!!
