Wire Ribbon Rosette

A quick tutorial for your Thursday!

Cut a piece of WIRE ribbon to desired length...I think this is about 24"...


Pull wire out at ends & scrunch ribbon...

Until it is all gathered up...

Tie knots at both ends of ribbon(I don't have pic of this step, sorry!
Then using a knot on one end as the middle...wrap your ribbon around & around & around in circles around that knot & when you get to the end of your ribbon...just tuck in the back...

Cut a circle out of felt & clip an alligator clip onto it...

Sorry about the pic...trying to HURRY so the glue wouldn't dry:)
Put a glob of hot glue right on the clip/felt...

Stick the backside of your rosette onto glob of glue & hold for a few seconds...

Turn over & you have an EASY rosette for your hair, your purse or your shirt!

PS...wire ribbon CAN get pricey, but not if you buy the bolts at Costco!
