How To Make Fabric Rosette’s

November 13, 2013

Remember that JOY-full pillow I shared a few days ago? Well, one of my favorite things about it was those lovely fabric rosette’s.

Today, I’m showing you how to make them!

Here’s how:

I started with 1 1/2 yards of muslin fabric about 20″ long.

Then, I laid a yardstick on top of the fabric and cut at least an inch slit every 2 inches…

Once the entire piece of fabric was marked, I started pulling the fabric into strips…

It pulls really easily and you’re left with this:

Now, to make the rosette, the fabric must be folded in half. Like this:

Then, start by rolling one end tightly until it’s about the thickness of your finger…

Add a dab of hot glue to hold it in place…

Then, roll the fabric on top of the glue and fold the fabric over like this:

Continue to wrap the fabric around, adding folds as you go. Every few folds, add a dab of hot glue…

Continue wrapping and folding the fabric…

Once you get to the end of the fabric, glue it to the bottom of the rosette…

You can certainly use a wider piece of fabric. I made a few more at 4 inches wide and they turned out just as pretty, they’re just much bigger! Whatever you fancy!

I’m quite smitten with them!

I have plans for the larger rosettes, but until then…

Instagram post 17877687346486071 We are loving the evening glow from our Christmas tree! Today on the blog, I’m sharing all the details on our tree and the different steps and layers I used to create it. It’s such a beautiful addition to our living room. 🎄

Instagram post 17855703316617271 Happy Saturday! We’re installing more interior doors and trim today! What a big difference it makes! This fixer upper of ours has been making some big progress lately. 😍 
Throwback to my last house... but our new doors will look similar to these!

Instagram post 17856780565609483 Our new flocked Christmas tree arrived and I spent the afternoon setting it up and fluffing the branches. It’s such a tedious job, especially on a new tree, but it’s worth it! 
I’ve been trying to decide how I wanted to decorate this year, and while I was “fluffing”, I think I finally decided. And now I’m excited. 😬🎄 This lovely picture is from my last house, all decorated for Christmas. 😍

Instagram post 17842824415781814 On the blog, I’m talking all about designing and purchasing our IKEA cabinets. We still have a little ways to go before we “officially” have the cabinets completely installed and finished... and then we have all the other things we need to add, like a custom vent hood, backsplash and open shelves, just to name a few, but if you’re wanting to use IKEA cabinets, today’s post will give you a good idea of what to expect!

Instagram post 17881252693452397 I’ve been updating the home tour of my old house on the blog, and I ran into this gem of a picture. This breakfast nook was such a beautiful space.

Instagram post 17859897157563074 I’ve been on the hunt for a new flocked Christmas tree since this beautiful tree is waay too tall for our 8’ ceilings... and I don’t want to look like Clark Griswold with my tree stuffed in the corner about to burst through the window. 💁🏼‍♀️ Sooo... I searched high and low to find the best flocked Christmas trees. There are some seriously beautiful trees... and after getting our tape measure out, we finally picked our new tree and it should be here this week! 🎄

If you’re looking for a new tree, be sure to head to the blog... I’ve organized them by size to make it easy! 👍🏻 #thewoodgraincottage #thewgc #christmasdecor #christmastree #flockedchristmastree #ontheblog
