Felt Flower Wreath
A couple of years ago I fell in love with Kellie at Nest of Posies Posie Wreath — isn’t it cute?
I wanted to make something that had that kind of impact. And I thought it would be fun to create some handmade felt flowers and top them off with vintage buttons I had.
So I made a couple printable templates you can make when creating these flowers. All you need to do is print and cut them out and trace them onto thin poster board or cardboard.
- Get some striped material. Mine is striped jersey from Hobby Lobby. I used about 1/2 yard, cut into 3 inch strips.
- Wrap the wreath form and hot glue the edges down.
- Now make the flowers.
- Print out the templates and trace them onto poster board or cardboard.
- Trace the scallops onto different colors of felt and cut them out.
- Take three of the felt cut outs and stich them at the straight line and gather the thread up, this will gather the felt into a circle.
- Make a knot in the thread, joining the flower together.
- After making the flowers, cut out small circles of felt and hot glue each flower onto the felt circle.
- Then hot glue avintage button onto each flower.
- And then add some coordinating ribbons to the top of the wreath and hang it up!
- Enjoy your new wreath!!
And I created a printable pattern for you to make it easier to mark and cut out your fabric.

I love this wreath, and your entire porch! That stripe jersey material is on my must own list!
I love how you used multiple ribbons to hang the wreath. It looks so great.
I am pretty new to your blog, but I already LOVE it. I can’t sew worth a darn and I was able to make this wreath! You inspired me to doll up my front porch this year and I’m having a blast doing it. Thanks for the post.
