I first stumbled upon this idea here on Flickr when I was researching my felt Hershey Kiss pattern. The photographer gives a quick paragraph how-to. I documented the steps with photographs for a more detailed tutorial. I am a visual learner so to the other visual learners out there - this one's for you. I also used fabric and felt instead of saran wrap and fake rose leaves. I think they are cuter that way but anything with fabric and felt is cuter in my humble opinion. : )
What you need to make one flower: a 5"x5" scrap piece of fabric, 2 felt leaves, 2 Hershey Kisses, 1 wooden cooking skewer, and floral tape.
1. Stack the Hershey Kisses together.
1. Stack the Hershey Kisses together.
2. Set the Kisses gently into the middle of the scrap of fabric.
LOVE IT! That is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteYou've done it again! They are awesome especially for people like me who are allergic to real flowers. Perhaps my husband should special orders these from you and for once in our 12 years together I will actually get flowers for Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great tutorial! Thanks for posting this! You should enter it into the Valentine's Link Party over here.

I entered one myself. Also, if you are interested, I made two things from the Wee Wonderfuls book. I've loved seeing the things you've made from it!

ReplyDeleteI did something similar one year with cellophane!!!!they were a hit with my co-workers!!
ReplyDeleteThese were very easy to make and I made them for my 2's and 3's Sunday School class so they could give them to their moms for Mother's Day. Thank you for the step by step directions.

ReplyDeleteVery lovely & yummy! : )
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely lovely! I'm sold on your idea. I was going to make a bouquet for my Valentine's dinner with the regular (saran paper) ones and decided against it. I was just wondering about the kind of fabric to use. I mean how "malleable" it should be, if you get my meaning?
ReplyDeleteLove this! Thanks for sharing!
