DIY - How to make organza flower

Hi everyone,

 I am so so happy that the spring is here, trees are green , flowers are blooming and it's like everything it's coming to life. It's perfect time to change our wardrobe with spring clothes and to add colorfull  accessoires. Today  i went to the park and there were so many flowers and thought that the flowers will be the perfect accessoire for the spring and for the coming summer. 
So today i decide to share with you a tutorial on how to make organza flowers.This organza flower which i am going to show you it's the perfect accessoire for our spring outfits. :) Its so so easy to do and you can make it in you favorite color.
For this tutorial i am using white organza fabric because that's what i had in hand.

This tutorial it's with pictures but very soon i will upload a video tutorial on my youtube channel very soon.

Let's start:
Materials: 
Organza fabric
Candle 
Scissors
Gluegun
Little peace of felt
Beads
Clip
Needle and thread

Cut 5 big squares - around 3,5 inches 
And 4 little squares- around 2,8 inches








To make the petals of the flower we need to cut in the middle of each side of the square, but be careful to not cut the center of the square.






Now we will burn or melt the edjes of every petal to make it more flower like. Put the petal close to the flame but not to close because you don't want to burn yourself or the fabric. Be careful while making this project, just in case you can have a bowl full with water close to you.



When you burn all the petals your flower should look like this. Don't worry if it's not perfect, because when you start layering the flower will be not visible.





Now we have all the flowers melted. Then we have to start layering the flower.
You can make the flower with less than 9 layers, but i prefer nine because it looks more dimensional.





When we layer the flower, the petals from each layer should go betwen the ones from the previous layer, as  you can see on the picture.Continue till you finish the layers.When you layer the flower, start with the bigger flowers and finish with the smaller ones.




When you finish with the layering, sew all the layers together with needle and thread.








I added 3 pearls in the center of the flower, but you can use another beads if you prefer.You can glue them or sew them as well.







Attache the peace of felt to the back of the flower with glue.








And add a clip of your choice.









Our flower it's ready. Its pretty isn't it.









I think it's the perfect accessoire for everything. Posibilites are many.









I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and it was easy for you to follow.
