So I made a ton of flowers yesterday.... probably around 50. Lindsay even came over and made a few with me... I have photographic evidence!!!
Here are some pics of the garland I told you about. And yes, I promise lots of video tutorials coming in the next week.... right after my birthday!
I decided to use fabric in place of ribbon for the garland support. This meant that I didn't have to back the flowers to each other like I thought, so I had twice as many as I had planned. I used every single one and might even add a few more!
By the way, 50 may sound like a lot of Glubers, but even if I bought the Glubers at full retail, this entire project would have cost me less than $20. On average, your finished flower made with fabric will run you a whopping .40¢. Most of mine were made with fabric I already had on hand.
Here is Lindsay, caught Gluber-handed. Yep, even a man can make these beauties!
A bit more proof. This next photo is what I call truth in blogging. It's not super pretty! Here you can see the mess, the project in progress, the dog and the Gluber usin' man. Can you see Suki's blue toenails? I think she needs a few flowers around her collar to finish off the look!
OK, onto yesterday's winner.... congratulations Emily Keaton. Send your info to cathie at cosmocricket dot com.
