Spring is peeking around the corner! I am so ready for warmer weather and colorful spring flowers to make their appearance! In the mean time, I am bringing a project from the archives today. This super simple colorful Spring Wreath and felt flower tutorial will add some much needed color to any front door!
Colorful Spring Wreath Tutorial
Here’s how to make easy spring felt flowers! I put them on a twig wreath for spring, but you can use them for all sorts of spring crafts.
These are super easy and fun to make….And talk about cheap!! Only a few pennies to make each flower – can’t beat that!
Colorful Felt Flower Spring Wreath Tutorial
Supplies
- Grapevine Wreath
- Felt {I used cheap craft felt}
- Hot Glue Gun
- Scissors or a rotary cutter
- Colorful Buttons
Start by cutting your felt into strips. If you’re using 9″x12″ sheets, you’ll use 2-3 strips per flower. For this particular one, I am cutting 3/4″ strips. I varied the widths for the flowers on my wreath.
To make each flower, start by folding over one end and gluing in place to create petals. I am doing about 1″ here. Fold the strip up at an angle and put a dot of glue to hold in place. Make your next petal by folding the felt down. Try and keep the petals the same length but don’t stress if they aren’t. They’ll still look great :)
Continue making petals until your felt strip runs out. Trim the excess (if there is any) and take your next felt strip and glue the corner to the last petal and finish making petals until circle is complete. Glue the first and last petals together overlapping slightly at the bottom of the petals. Glue a button in the center of your flower and you’re done! Easy as that!
I made 10 felt flowers for my wreath. You may need to make more or less depending on how big you made your felt flowers.
You can vary the petal widths and lengths to make different types of flowers. You can also layer them for a fun effect too.
Enjoy your new spring wreath! I’m sure it will brighten up your front door this spring!
