Felted Wool Posies and Wool Vase

Posies in all colors! 

Very easy to make…I cut three circles in graduated sizes.  I picked out a vintage button or two for the center of each one.

Then I cut a wire twice the length of the stem, fold it in half, and thread it onto the button and through the layers of the stacked felt circles.

For the leaves I cut a small leaf, and a 4 inch piece of wire. The stem and the leaf wire I covered in florist tape, adding the leaf stem as I covered the stem.

The flowers can be any color, the more the merrier!

And the center buttons don’t have to be a matching color…

The vase is made from a mason jar and a sleeve from a felted wool sweater. I moistened the sleeve as it was rather tight on the jar and then just worked it down over the jar.

This grey plaid wool was a great cover for the chipped mason jar.

I may be linking to these great parties!
