Rounded End Five Petal Flower


The rounded ribbon edge is made with a washer and woodburning tool. Trace the end of the washer on the ribbon. This will cut the ribbon and seal the end at the same time.




Cut Ribbon to length; these petals are 1 3/4 inches.

Repeat process to make five petals.

Stitch petals together with a needle and upholstery thread.


Pull the threads tight and tie off on the back of flower.



Supplies used in this flower: 1 1/2 inch Ribbon, 1 1/2 inch Metal Washer (hardware store), Woodburner (craft store), Needle and Upholstery thread
