Peacock Coloured Fabric and Tulle Brooch


Yesterday, my Mom and I went to Ottawa Street in Hamilton to look for fabric and I found THE most awesome tulle for 98 cents per metre!  I bought a whole bunch because I am going to attempt to make a Christmas wreath with it this year.  It's no secret that I just LOVE peacocks and all of our Christmas decorations are in peacock colours.  I just had to use some of the tulle today so I made a fabric brooch exactly the same way as I made the felt flower brooch last week.  I am really pleased with how it turned out.  I added some ribbon as well for an extra touch.  I bunched the tulle up and stapled the pieces together at the bottom and then glued the pieces to the felt base before gluing all of the petals on.  Love the colours!
Well, that's it for tonight.  Back to work tomorrow.  It's so hard to concentrate at work when I have all of these crafting ideas running through my head.
Have a great evening.  Hugs and pugs to everyone!
