Make-It-Yourself Monday #5

Last week's theme was a huge hit!  And if any of you made the rolled paper flowers, you'll see why!  They are so simple, yet so fun.  I made so many I actually got burnt out.

This week's theme piggy-backs on last week's.  It's the same rosettes, used in various ways.  It took some digging to find all these treasures.

Learn how to make stems and leaves for your rosettes so you can place them in a vase as a centerpiece or gift them to someone!



Or, if you prefer, attach them to a wreath form for some handcrafted holiday beauty to hang on your front door!

Or get really creative and make this cute centerpiece (my personal favorite)!

    Jen- lovely, aren't they? I want to make one, but I'm so tired of making those rosettes. A shoebox full is a lot of cutting and rolling!
