These felt poinsettas I made I kept for myself for the time being till I decide what to do with them. I am debating on whether I went them to be ornaments, decorations on packages or part of centerpiece, I can't decide. I saw the template and I couldn't pass it up. I always have glitter glue (my favorite thing), thread and the white fluff to put inside.
On the white poinsetta, the petals on top are curled at the center and seed beads are gathered at the center. Then I went around with red glitter glue on the inside petals and made a dash pattern on the outside petals.
On the one of red Poinsetta's, I put silver glitter glue on the border on petals and sewed together seed beads in the center. On the other red poinsetta I made a dash pattern with white puffy paint on the outside petals and sewed together white seed beads in the center.
GLITTER LEAVES AND PUMPKIN WREATH
This colorful fall wreath was made with a cardboard form that I made myself. I added fall leaves from the store and felt pumpkins and pears in orange and yellow. I put the leaves in certain pattern and glued glitter on some of the leaves. I adhered the pears and the pumpkins and I glued some more glitter on the creases on the pumpkins and the pears
MATERIALS
Cardboard form (10" or 12")
Assorted sizes fall leaves (from craft store)
Hot glue
Glitter

1. Cut from cereal box or anything that's big enough for a 10" or 12" circle with a 2 inch solid base.
2. On a plate before you put the leaves on the wreath, arrange a pattern with the leaves that you would like to see on the wreath. You can do it many times until you are satisfied with the pattern.
3. With glue gun ready, start placing the assorted colors and sizes of leaves onto the wreath on the pattern that you decided on. When they are dried, brush the veins on some of leaves with craft glue and sprinkle autumn colored glue to add effect.
