I have had a lot of people ask where I got or how I make Lil' B's hair flowers. What can I say, the colors have to match my girls outfits perfectly. This flower will go perfectly with the pillowcase dress I made for both of the girls. Or as Lil' B calls it, her "dancing dress."
These are really simple once you get the hang of it. I even taught my 13 and 11 year old nieces how to make them. You will need a glue gun, scissors, and a strip of fabric and we could all use a caffeine free diet dr pepper, right? Projects seem to go a little smoother what it right by my side. ANYWAY I like to do mine about 1 inch to 1 1/2 inches wide and the width of the fabric. This fabric was 45 inches wide. (that way, you can just snip off the excess once you have the desired flower size- trust me it is easier to snip away then try to add length!)

Step 1: Tie a simple knot in the end of your fabric.
Step 2: Put a small dot of hot glue on the side of your knot. Begin rolling the fabric around the knot twisting the fabric half way every quarter turn. Placing glue as needed on the side of the flower to hold it in place. You can twist the fabric more just depending on how tight you like the flowers.
Step 3: This flower is half way through the fabric. Stop or keep going.
Step 4: Picture above is the back side of the finished flower. Cut a simple circle (picture below) a little smaller than the finished flower and glue it to the back side of the flower to hold everything in place. Glue onto a headband, a clip or make some more for a flower cluster. 
And you're done! Looks so cute in lil' b's hair!
