Show Off Saturday: Felt Flowers

I was a lazy bum most of this week, and I haven't got much to show off today.  Except for these awesome felt flowers I've been making all week as my service project for the primary kids and teachers/leaders for the upcoming program!  Tutorials are coming soon, I promise!  But I just wanted to show off my photos today...the colors make me happy.  :)  And it's been a lot of fun to work on something so small but so cheerful for someone else. 

First up, some button daisies for the kids...I made 75 of these, in 15 different colors, and the rainbow pictures just make me smile.  Our ward's kiddos kinda remind me of a rainbow, anyway--so cheerful and bright and unique--and how cute will they be when they sing, "I like to look for rainbows whenever there is rain..." all part of this rainbow of their own. :)





Favorite.  :)

The back...

This is the one Caida picked out for herself.  The perks of having an aunt who loves to craft.  :)

For the primary teachers/music leaders, I made 20 mini-flower corsages, complete with rosettes,

box flowers,

and cherry blossoms of varying colors.

Put them together and you get something kinda cute!



I made four very special corsages for the primary presidency, inspired by my dear friend Clair, who made one for me on Mother's Day this year.  :)  These were definitely way more time-intensive than the others, so I'm glad I only made them for the presidency!  And don't look too closely, or you'll be able to tell which ones I did first (I got better about spacing as I went along).  Still, I LOVED making these.  I think they're so pretty, and they're a good 4 inches wide so they'll be beautiful brooches.

My secret note compartment! :)


That's what I spent at least SOME of this week doing.  What about you?
