Fabric Scrap Flower Pin

Photo by The Farm Chicks
My favorite Farm Chicks (the hub bought me one of their vintage-wallpaper pendants for our first, “paper” wedding anniversary) have an easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy tutorial on how to make a tres-country-chic fabric-scrap flower pin. Simply use their template to cut out petal shapes in varying sizes (four of each), then fasten with a vintage button in front and a safety pin round back. The Chicks used salvaged fabric and ribbons from an old chicken coop about to be burned down; I’m bowled over by the fabulousness of that corn-meal sack.
I’m also crushing on Posie’s recycled wool flower pins in a major way. If I were ever to Single White Female anyone, it’d be her (except no puppies would be hurt because I’m a big ol’ softie like that).
