Flower Tutorial

So here is how i have been making the flowers i have featured on my blog.
Here is what you will need to make flowers.
Your choice of fabric (sheers, tulle and sateen work best)
Tea light candle
Scissors
Thread and needle
Tweezers
Your choice of smbellishment for the middle
Safety pins

STEP ONE
Cut circles of various size ( i do a minimum of 5)


STEP TWO
Hold one circle with tweezers and singe edges using tea lite
STEP THREE

Arrange the circles largest to smallest on top of each other.  Sew centers to each other and add embellishment to center.
Optional:  When i cut my circles i layer them together and put a safety pin trhough them and do it up to keep each flower together.
That is all there is to it.
Thanks for stopping by.
