Embroidered felt flower bookmark

This is one of those projects you can do in a hurry with very pleasant results. It’s not only quick but also inexpensive.

Materials

• Store bought felt die cuts or you can cut your own shapes
• Ribbon
• Embroidery floss

 

Use contrasting highly contrasting colours for best results. If you’re unsure about the color combinations you can use complimentary colour schemes. For instance:

• red and green
• orange and blue
• yellow and purple

I decided to use different colours for each side but you can use the same colour scheme for both.

 

Then using embroidery floss embroider the flowers.

 

Place both flowers wrong side together and place the ribbon in between. Stitch both petals together using an embroidery stitch.

 

Then do the same to the other end of the ribbon. I only used two circles so I just used some cream embroidery floss to stitch both together and secure it to the ribbon.

 

Done!

This bookmark makes a cute handmade Christmas gift.
