project MONDAY II ~ Victorian Rose Pin

Welcome to project MONDAY II!

project MONDAY
I want to share an easy, fun and CHEAP project with you this week.
I created a ribbon rose corsage pin several years ago and taught a class in making them using this handout:

Several months ago I made scads of this updated version and they sold out!
I made it from an ivory grosgrain wired ribbon and dunked it in some strong tea overnight to "age" it. I made the center from a pearl hat pin that I'd dipped in Elmer's glue and silver glitter. (just poke it through the center of your flower and snip off the excess on the back - you might want to add a drop of glue here too) 

So easy and they make fabulous gifts.

So what are YOU working on????

You know the drill....

    Thanks for the written tutorial. LOVE that ribbon corsage and I can see why you sold out...it's beautiful. I'm adding that to my list of projects!
