DIY: Felt Rose Ring { Tutorial }

This felt rose ring was a project that I did few years back and was my first time doing a ring using felt. It was originally based on a ring that a friend purchased elsewhere and I thought I could pay for less and make my own. So I experimented it myself at home. I am happy the way it turned out, quite versatile as I can make it as a brooch, earrings or a headpiece.

Have fun!

You Will Need:

Felt or other fabric (I chose indigo blue)
Scissors
Ring band
Needle
Matching colour thread

Cut Out As Much Petals As You Wish.

I used 11 petals. You can cut more to make your rose to have more volume. My petal size is within 1 inch x 1 inch.

Take a Petal and Put a String at the Tip of the Petal (the Side That Is Narrower) As Show in the Picture

Pull the String Tight So That You Create a Shape Like This. Tie a Knot to Keep the Shape. Repeat These Steps for the Rest of the Petals

Repeat Another Set of 4 and a Set of 2. Keeping One Petal Remaining.

Now, Stack the 3 Sets Together and Sew.

You should have 2 sets of four's and 1 set of two's. Make sure the set of two's is at the top. Tips: Distribute the petals evenly

Now Mold the Two Petals in the Center and Squeeze a Bit Inwards and Secure With Thread.

Use the Remaining Pedal and Roll the Tip to Something Like This and Secure With Thread.

This will be used as the center pedal.

Fit the Petal Into the Center and Sew in Place.

Tips: you might need to trim the center petal a bit if it appears to be taller than the rest of the petals.

Cut Out the Same Size Circle As the Ring Blank From the Felt.

Sew the Circle to the Bottom of the Rose.
