Floral Friday: Puckered Petals

March 20, 2020syHandscraft, floral, friday, ribbon, ribbon flower, tutorial, youtube

Easier than it looks… This one started to throw me for a loop, but I figured out a way to do it using tweezers a lot more than the video did, and I got a better and faster result. Merry Craft is amazingly nimble-fingered, but I work with ten stunted sausages at the best of…

Floral Friday: Cone-petaled Layers

March 13, 2020syHandsfloral, flower, ribbon flower, tutorial, video, youtube

Easy and Effective This one was nice and easy and it looks beautiful to boot! It will need to be on a stiff background though, because the petals are not attached to each other except at the very tips, and it does flip around. Perhaps giving it a firm felt circle at the back might…

Floral Friday: Star Cinch

March 6, 2020syHandsribbon flower, tutorial, youtube

Shine Like a Star… This one is quite bright! It must have been the lights in the studio. I have made flowers in this colour before, but for some reason this is making me want to reach for the sunglasses! Will Merry Craft ever run out of ideas? This is another one that is quite…

Floral Friday: a chunky one!

February 28, 2020syHandsribbon flower, tutorial, youtube

Many Loops! This one really threw me for a loop! This is one of the flowers that are made by stringing individual petals onto the thread and cinching it closed. When I first tried it, I used the wrong end of each petal and it just wasn’t working… I looked more carefully at the video…

Floral Friday: Puffy yet flat…

February 21, 2020syHandsfloral, ribbon flower, tutorial, video, youtube

Still enjoying the Journey Here’s another Floral Friday! Thanks go yet again to Merry Craft for this fantastic YouTube tutorial. This beautiful flower is made of 2.5cm ribbon, and you’ll need a button or a few beads for the centre. I like the end result of this one. It’s fairly simple, but the result is…

Floral Friday: Beaded Petals

February 14, 2020syHandsfloral, ribbon flower, tutorial, video

Before the beads… Thanks again go to Merry Craft for this Floral Friday offering. I love the flowers that have more folds in the petals. It really brings out the beauty of the ribbon and also makes a sturdier result. This has to be my favourite to date! My pearl shank buttons are still in…

Floral Friday: Six Loopy Petals…

January 31, 2020syHandsfloral, flower, ribbon flower, youtube

Different Buttons are ok actually… I needed to use regular two-holed buttons because I lost my shank buttons, but with a design like this, it is actually better to be able to hide the very middle of the flower, so I guess losing the buttons wasn’t such a curse after all! It does mean that…

Floral Friday: Lost my buttons!

January 24, 2020syHandsflowers, ribbon flower, youtube

Who’s got the button? I bought a large pack of pearly shank buttons to use as flower centers. As you can see, this isn’t one of them. I can’t find it!! This is a frequent crafty problem that I have, and I’ve heard it spoken about a lot too… you lose something you need for…

Floral Friday: Easy Rosebud!

January 3, 2020syHandsfloral, ribbon, ribbon flower, sewing, youtube

Another easy one! YouTube suggested this one to me, but instead of putting it into my list of flowers to make, I decided to make it right away. This one is a double-layered one. The video said the ribbon segments were to be 4cm x 8cm, but I only had 2.5cm or 5cm ribbon to…

Floral Friday – Upping the game

December 27, 2019syHandsribbon flower, tutorial, video

Intermediate! This one was my first slightly more difficult one. I love the result and the challenge, so I can’t wait to do even more! It uses 2.5cm ribbon and the usual other supplies. The hardest part of this really was sewing the petals together. In the end, after trying many things, I sewed them…
