If you are in need of a last minute gift these are incredibly easy to make and will take less than 15 minutes. Pins are a great accessory for a jacket of a coat. If you don’t want to use as a pin you can add a hair clip instead of a pin or just use for a gift wrap embellishment.

SUPPLIES

Felt, various colors
Assorted buttons
Scissors
Hand sewing needle
Thread
Bar pins
Hot glue

DIRECTIONS

This is so easy you’ll wonder why you haven’t made a bunch of these to have on hand for gifts.

For the red & grey circle pin:

Step 1: Cut felt into different size circles. No need to measure just cut into different sizes.

Step 2: Layer the circles from largest to smallest.

Step 3: Add a button to the top of the layers and, using a sewing needle and thread, sew all the layers together.

Step 4: Use hot glue to adhere your bar pin to the back of the layers.

That’s it. You are done!

For the purple flower pin:

Step 1: Cut 2 circles of various sizes and colors for your bottom two layers. Cut 4 circles of the same color and roughly the same size to make the petals.

Step 2: Working with one small circle at a time, fold the circle in half and then fold in half again so the circle is quartered and creates 1/4 of the flower. I put in a quick stitch at the point to hold it together.

Step 3: Layer the felt with the largest circle on the bottom, then next size, than the quartered circles. You’ll put the point in the center of the felt to create a circle with the folded petals.
