Hair Flowers
I learned how to make a new kind of hair flower out of fabric and I love them! It is so much easier to find fabric to match clothes then it is to find a fake flower. They are also softer. I also think they are easier to make. I am posting this for my niece Chelsea she wants to so them and try to make them. You just need a synthetic fabric like acetate or polyester. You can get the kinds that look like silk or satin, If it is not synthetic it does not work. Cut out about 5-7 circles in varying sizes. Hold over a candle to melt edges. The fabric will start to melt and fold up like a petal. Than put it together like the fake flowers. I like to use netting in between the petals. Add a cute center and a clip and your done. I would also say to be careful with the fire.
