as meg ryan says in You've Got Mail, “daisies are such a happy flower”. Daffadills are pretty fabulous too. nothing's better than a colorful gift from a loved one to welcome any day. speaking of giveaways… my blog, happy owl, is doing a hand cozy giveaway this weekend. good luck. xo
Sweetheart Felt Hair ClipSupplies:Sweetheart Felt Hair Clip Template (in case you want to use the same size I made)
Small scraps of wool felt fabric
1 1/2" - 2" snap clips (or whatever size is appropriate for the sweet head you're making this for)
Coordinating embroidery floss
Hand sewing needle
Scissors
Decorative trim (optional)
1. Cut 2 heart pieces (front and back) from your wool felt. You can also get creative a cut a smaller heart to layer on top of the larger heart (see template).
2. Cut a 1/4" slit on the back wool felt piece (see template for the location to cut the slit). Open up snap clip and insert through the slit, so that center portion extends out the back of the felt.
3. Layer the two front and back pieces together; use a running stitch 1/4" from the fabric edge to stitch the two hearts together. If adding trim, layer it on top edge of the top heart, and sew a running stitch through the trim as you also sew all the layers together.
Clip on and dance! Well, it made my Brave spin and twirl for sure, but that girl is always dancing, twirling, and flying (as seen here and here).
I have to make one more, so that each of my girls will have one to wear on Valentine's Day. Can you tell we are totally getting geared up for next Friday?!! I'm not even sure what we're going to do, but the girls have the day off from school, so I think we will have our own mini party at home during the day, and Ben and I will get our special time together at night.
The glitter gold headband is from Mane Message and the dress is from Misha Lulu.
