Rose Wreath

Now this one I am very proud of.  I was taught how to make newspaper roses.  Once I practised a bit I wondered if you could do the same thing with fabric, such as thick ribbon or felt.  So I decided it was something I simply must try, this picture here is what I came up with.  The glitter ones are ribbon and the pale pink one is felt.  They were quite fiddly but well worth the effort.  I enjoyed making them so much that I had to do a whole wreath with them and this is the outcome.

The great thing about it, or at least I think anyway, is that it is sparkly enough for Christmas, but because of the colours I think it could stay up all year.  You can make it as big or small as you like and any choice of colours.  It could also make a nice table centre piece, with a chunky candle in the middle.  This is definitely one that you can tailor to whatever you want it for.
