Embellishments...are for people!

The current MemoryWorks catalog has SO many fun, cute embellishments that are just calling out for fun, cute projects!

If you've got any ribbon, fabric flowers and brads laying around, you can make this super easy project in less than 5 minutes!

If you need to order a few of these items, check out a couple off these cute options:
BoBunny iCandy flowers come in great colors and several shapes in one package - very versatile!
BoBunny iCandy Brads are the perfect touch for any project!
Creative Imaginations felt flowers are only $3!

Once you've got some flowers, brads and ribbons, all you need to do is layer a couple of flowers, thread a brad through the center of the flowers and a ribbon, close the brad...and...you've got yourself an embellishment for the cute little girl (or yourself!) in your life!

You could also tie these little goodies onto headbands, or tie onto a gift, or tie around a plain glass jar for a jazzed up flower vase. Tie one around a hat, or use as a brightly colored choker necklace. Skip the ribbon and glue one a flower/brad combo to a magnet for your refrigerator! Lots of options...very quick, very easy - and cheap! We all like that, right?!

Here are a couple of my projects:
(I stuck the flowers/brads through a pre-made headband)

(Flowers/Brad stuck through a ribbon and tied around a ponytail)
(Flowers/Brad stuck through a longer ribbon and tied around head)

Have fun "embellishing" the people in your life with some of MemoryWorks great new embellishments!
