Sweet Rosette Fun
I’m so excited to tell you all about the sweet little rosettes that have been filling my time recently.
I saw a picture of these little rosettes, and some headbands that were adorned with them. I fell in love!
Needless to say I began scouring the web for tutorials. About the same time I, as I’m sure many of you, became COMPLETELY ADDICTED to pinterest. Oi vey {I have no idea if that’s how you spell that French word, but I love it, so I hope it’s right}. That site takes up so much of my time. It seems that I decide to get on for a few minutes and then somehow time goes into fast-forward and all of a sudden I’ve been on for HOURS. It’s like a vortex, just sucks you in with its awesomeness.
But, I digress. Anywho, so once I entered the pinterest vortex {wink} I found amazing tutorials for rosettes. And the rest is history now.
My Christmas gifts for my family consisted of all fabric rosettes, and I must say, I loved every single one of the creations! I made 3 necklaces, a headband, 2 hair clips and 2 broaches. And I just couldn’t seem to stop. I just kept wrapping and wrapping that pretty little fabric, until my hands hurt from all of the glue I got on them. {They don’t call it a hot glue gun for nothing, that little sucker is HOT}
So, here are some pix of a few of the rosettes. I am creating an etsy account where you can purchase any that you would like as well as here on my blog.
Happy viewing sweet friends.

So, like? This isn't all of them, but a collection of some. I have some work to do, and any input is greatly appreciated! But, I admit, I love making them! I want to make a pillow and a purse, I’ll let you know how those endeavors turn out.
