I always find transitioning between seasons a little tricky. As much as I want to break free of my winter coat and chunky knit sweaters and show some spring spirit, the reality is, it’s still not warm enough to do this.
But how can I possibly get excited about wearing the same gray coat I’ve been wearing all winter? Hello, Emerson Made’s pretty fabric flowers. Take a look. The perfect way to add a pinch of spring to your winter outfits.
New for spring– the Dandy! It comes is all sorts of sizes. Pin ‘em in your hair or on your man’s tie. Sunshine on a cloudy day!
And for all you DIYers out there, 100 Layer Cake has a fabric flower tutorial.
All you need:
Craft needles
Fabric (100% cotton and tulle, cut into the shape of petals)
Scissors
Thread
and a Hot Glue Gun
Darker thread was used in this tutorial to show how and where to put the stitches.

So Pretty!
