Look to the Sky Flower Belt DIY

Look to the Sky Flower Belt DIY Project

"i like being silly with you.

you make me laugh and smile, and when i am feeling like that, i feel like i can do anything." ~ I am blessed

I was inspired by this Down East Basics belt:


Down East Basics Belt by you.
And so I decided to create one of my own!

P5100096 by you.

Crafting 5 little flowers by taking sets of 5 squares of chiffon, cutting them into circles, stitching and bending them in different ways so they looked like flowers.

P5100148 by you.

I then added little diamonds to the center, added 3 pleats on each side of the where I was to add the flowers, hot glued the flowers onto a wide piece of white satin ribbon....

Running into the clouds by you.

And am having the best of time wearing it!
