It is very easy to make decor from felt for hairpins, brooches, hair ties. Here is one way you can use to create collaboratively with children.
To make such a flower, you will need burgundy, pink and green felt, thick woolen or cotton (iris, floss in several folds, silk is also suitable) threads, a needle, beads or small beads for decoration, hot glue, a small magnet (or base for a brooch, a hairpin mechanism or a hat elastic).
The order of work: 1. Make a flower pattern. Increase or decrease it as desired (by hand or in any graphics editor).
2. Cut a large pink and burgundy flower and a smaller pair. Cut out a piece of green felt. 3. Fold the flowers on top of each other alternating colors as in the photo - more from below, smaller from above. There should be a green leaf at the bottom of this pyramid.
4. Sew everything together with a thick thread. These stitches should mimic the stamens. 5. Sew a few beads or small beads into the very center of the flower with a thin thread in the color of the flower. The felt flower is ready, you can, for example, sew it on a bag or, by gluing a small magnet to it, decorate the refrigerator with such a flower.
But you can modify the craft a little. To do this, take the mechanism from the hairpin or the base for the brooch and glue the flower to such a base with hot glue.
You can also take a thin elastic of hat, cut off a small piece, tie, fasten a felt flower on it. Use this elastic for a ponytail. Close the back side, where the flower was sewn to the elastic, with a green felt circle, sewing it with a thin thread in the color of the felt.
By the way, such a flower can be used to decorate a curtain holder.
