No Sew Fabric Flowers and Headband

   I have seen so many fabric flower tutorials out there, and they are so easy and fast to make!  The best part was, I was able to use scraps around the house from other projects.  The inspiration for this tutorial was from www.rufflesandstuff.com.   I'm making mine into a headband, but there are so many options for these flowers! I'm thinking I want to sew some onto a cardigan for myself :)
    
   You will need:
          -fabric for the flowers
          -felt
          -buttons for the center
          -hot glue gun
          -elastic (I used stretchrite oval cord elastic)

   First, you are going to need to cut seven circles from your fabric and one circle from your felt.  I used the bottom of a cup to trace my circles.  You can make your circles bigger or smaller, depending on what size you want your flower.   I didn't want my flower to fray so I used fray check.

   Next you are going to take one of your fabric circles and fold it in half.  Once you've done that, fold it in half again and cut the tip off.

  Take four of the folded fabric circles and glue them to your felt.  Once they are glued down, take your three remaining folded fabric circles and glue them in the center.  Add your button to the center and you are done!

  

  Now for the headband!  Cut out a piece of felt a little smaller than your original piece.  Next, cut your elastic to the desired length.  I'm making mine for my little one who is 2 1/2 months, so I needed 15 1/2 inches.  You will lose a little bit of your length when you glue your elastic so add about a 1/4 inch to your length.  Turn your flower over and glue one end of the elastic to the middle of the headband.  Take the opposite end and glue it on top of your first elastic end so that it overlaps a little.

  

   Glue your smaller felt circle to the back to hide the elastic ends and you have a finished headband!
