Supplies needed for lace flowers

These lace flowers are really easy to make and you only need a few supplies.

lace

hot glue

button

I used 1 1/2 inch wide crochet lace, but you can try other types and varieties of lace for different looks. You will need about 10-12 inches of lace.

Steps to Making Lace Flowers

I've written the instructions step-by-step for you. Use this collage with the corresponding step to visualize what the instructions say.

Step 1 - Grab your supplies. I always say use what you have if possible. You will need lace (I ended up using the 1 1/2" lace, about 10" long), a button, and hot glue.

Step 2 - Place hot glue on the short edge of the lace and fold it under.

Step 3 - Fold a small piece at the bottom of the ribbon and secure with hot glue.

Step 4 - Continue with step 3 over and over until you've created a flower.

Step 5 - Fold under the lace and hot glue so there are not raw edges.

Step 6 - Overlap slightly where the two ends meet and hot glue in place.

Step 7 - Hot glue a button in the center.

Now embellish your craft! I added mine to this twine wrapped bottle.
