So cutting these is super easy, I simply traced 2 sizes of cups and then cut them in half. The rest of the tutorial is super easy to follow but I will admit that they are kind of tedious to make. Here is a picture of my result:
Ta Da! Easy, cute, and awesome!
Then I needed a break from felt and sewing so I decided to make some new hair bows for Lizzie. These don't have any tutorials because they were pictures from Etsy so I just had to figure out how to make them myself. Because this isn't linked to a tutorial I don't feel right about sharing my directions but I will share some tips and suggestions to making it easier.
So I made a turkey hair clip first. Here is the original picture:
So the hardest part is making the feathers behind the turkey the right size BEFORE you start gluing them down. Also you can't see it in this picture but I covered the clip behind the turkey in brown, but you can't really see it. Also make sure you put both yellow feather on first, orange second and then the red so each color you add sits on top of the previous one. The body is pretty easy- again make sure you have ALL of the pieces cut right before you start gluing. I didn't put the beak or eyes on because that was just too tedious for me, kudos to the person that did. So here's my result:
Next was pumpkin bows :-) Here's the original:
This one is super easy! I simply covered the clip in green. Then I cut 4 equal pieces and then glued them together by making loops and gluing them all at the bottom. I'm not really sure how they make the stem with the vines coming off it but I think I did ok. So here's my result:
One is a little squished but still cute!
And now I must head to bed! Good Night!!
