Hi, I'm Tiffany Windsor. Today I'm at my local Michael's store and I'm feeling really
inspired
from all of the felt. There's so many cool colors. Now you can find felt in
the kid's department.
But did you know that you can find
pre-felted pieces?
That's closer to the yarn department.
My inspiration today was this really cool headband with peace signs and I'm going
to glue the felted pieces onto the headband with my Aleene's Super Thick Tacky Glue.
The Aleene's Super Thick Tacky Glue is great to use when you are crafting
with felt.
These are pre-felted
embellishments and we are going to make these really quickly. All you need
to do is squeeze out
your Super Thick Tacky Glue,
use a toothpick to apply your glue to the back of your embellishment
and I put my headband into two glasses so that it would keep it upright
and i want to put my flower off to the side just a little bit
and just press it in place.
Do the same thing with your pre-felted leaves
and glue those right onto your headband.
This is a project that you can make tonight and wear tomorrow.
The kids, the little girls are going to love this.
So, let this sit overnight to dry completely.
Another way that you can use these pre-felted embellishments is to create a barrette and
what you want to do for this is to cut an extra little piece of
felt
and that is going to glue onto the back
to help
hold
this all in place.
So, this is going to glue down and then we're going to go that extra piece of
felt.
So, apply your Aleene's Super Thick Tacky Glue onto your barrette,
press that down
onto the flower
and you're going to keep adjusting this a little bit so it doesn't have to be
exactly straight right now.
Use the toothpick and apply more glue onto
that little piece of felt that you cut
and this is going to slip underneath
and glue right in place
and that's what gives you that extra hold on the back of your barrette.
Let this dry overnight
and you will be stylish tomorrow.
It is so easy to create your own hair and fashion accessories.
The Aleene's Super Thick Tacky Glue is available in the three pack
at Michael's.
It's Terrifically Tacky and Creatively Cool.
