Instructions
I cut my material with my Olaf cutter this way I have straight strips
I like to cut different sizes of material it gives my table runners a fun look I like to cut a lot of material at once so I can just create.
You need a lot go glue for this project but it’s so worth it.
Start at one end and kind of gather the material and start gluing it on the edge until you have gone all the way around.
For the felt roses I cut ¼ inch strips and start twisting the felt and go around in a circle twisting as you go and it will start to look like a rose. Then I use a good amount of glue to hold it together.
Add a bead in the middle of the rose to give it that cute look
I like to add a few buttons to my table runner you will just have to hand wash it so the buttons don’t come off.

Tips
You can add a small piece of felt to the back of your rose to hold it all together
I like to cut my place mats in half this way I can put it up against a wall and then you have two.
I think its really cute to use rose petals around some of your placemats.
