Rick Rack Flower

In my daily search for cool new things to make and share I found these adorable embellishments made from cotton rick rack and felt.

And I of course made my own!

Mine took 2 yds. of 3/4" cotton rick-rack and one small (2" diameter) felt circle.

Finished size is approximately 3" across.

Ways you could use these:
  • Combined with fabric yo-yos embellishing a denim skirt or jacket.

  • Add a pin back and make a corsage for Mom this Mother's Day.

  • Sewn onto the pocket of an apron for some added kitschy kick.

  • Glued onto a hair clip or barrette.

  • Embellishing a totebag or purse.

  • Glue some on wooden skewers for colorful plant pokes.

  • Sandwich a small magnet between flower back and another piece of felt, sew edges closed and you have a unique refrigerator magnet.


  • The ideas are practically endless!

    1. Can you send step-by-step instructions? Maybe they are here and I just can't access.

      Thank you.

    2. Sharon,
      There is a link right above the first picture. It isn't my tutorial so I am not at liberty to copy it here.
