Instructions
Step 1. Gather your supplies. | |
Step 2. Paint a ceramic pot a bright color. We chose yellow! Set aside to dry. | |
Step 3. While the pot dries, let’s make our flowers! Cut a (2) fuzzy sticks into (5) 4” pieces. | |
Step 4. Place a large button on your workspace, with the concave side facing down. Insert each end of a fuzzy stick from Step 3 into two separate holes. | |
Step 5. Using another fuzzy stick from Step 3, place one end of the fuzzy stick into a hole with the previous fuzzy stick and put the other end into an empty hole. | |
Step 6. Repeat Step 5 with the remaining fuzzy sticks from Step 3. For the final fuzzy stick, it will be put into two holes that already have two fuzzy sticks, so it may take a little elbow grease! | |
Step 7. Flip over the flower and make sure all the fuzzy sticks came throughthe holes. Fold them over to secure. | |
Step 8. Glue a smaller button in the middle to cover the ends of the fuzzy sticks. | |
Step 9. Cut 3 dowels into different sized pieces, as shown. We plan on making (6) flowers and we want them to have different length stems! | |
Step 10. Paint the dowels green. | |
Step 11. Once the dowels are dry, glue them to the back of the flowers. | |
Step 12. Wrap half of a green fuzzy stick around a dowel and remove. | |
Step 13. Take the curled fuzzy stick from the previous step and attach it to the stem of your flowers. | |
Step 14. Repeat the previous steps to complete all of your flowers! | |
Step 15. Set aside your flowers and grab your dry painted pot. Glue buttons of various sizes sporadically around the pot. | |
Step 16. Using glitter glue, add petals to some of the buttons to create flowers! |
