- Size :- Aim for a star that's about 8-10 inches across, depending on your preference.
2. Creating the Felt Flowers :-
- Cut Petals :- Cut out numerous small circles from the white felt. These will form the flower petals.
- Fold and Glue :- Fold each circle in half, then glue the edges together to create a cone shape. This forms the base of your flower.
- Add Center :- Glue a white pom-pom to the center of each flower to give it a finished look.
3. Assembling the Flower Circle :-
- Arrange :- Begin arranging the flowers in a circular pattern on the star. You can overlap them slightly for a more natural look.
- Glue :- Secure each flower to the star using hot glue.
- Fill Gaps :- If there are any gaps between the flowers, fill them in with smaller white pom-poms.
4. Adding Green Accents :-
- Placement :- Glue small green pom-poms in between the white flowers. This creates a pleasing contrast and adds visual interest.
5. Making the Tassels :-
- Cut Strips :- Cut several lengths of green felt into thin strips. Each strip should be about 1-2 inches wide.
- Knot the Top :- Tie a knot at one end of each strip.
- Add Pom-pom :- Cut a small slit in the center of the knot. Thread a green pom-pom through this slit.
- Trim :- Trim the ends of the strips evenly to create the tassels.
6. Attaching the Tassels :-
- Glue :- Glue the tassels to the bottom of the star, evenly spaced apart.
7. Adding Beads :-
- String Beads :- Cut lengths of gold chain or cord. String gold beads onto these chains.
- Attach to Tassels :- Secure one end of each beaded chain to the top of a tassel.
8. Creating the Hanging Loop :-
- Cut Cord :- Cut a length of gold chain or cord.
- Fold and Glue :- Fold the cord in half and glue the ends together to form a loop.
- Attach to Star :- Glue this loop to the top center of the star.
Tips & Variations :-
- Size :- Adjust the size of the star and flowers to suit your preference.
- Color Combinations :- Experiment with different colors of felt and pom-poms. You could use pink, blue, or yellow for a more vibrant look.
- Embellishments :- Add sequins, glitter, or small beads to the flowers for extra sparkle.
- Layered Flowers :- For a more complex look, create flowers with multiple layers of felt petals.
Remember :-
- Use a hot glue gun with caution, as the glue can get very hot.
- Let the glue dry completely before handling the wall hanging.
