Last week I came across yet another flower pin tutorial (from Abby, of The Feathered Nest), this time using silk flowers. Of course, being addicted to all things that involve flowers and pins (its a disease I don't want to be cured of), I was compelled to act on this tutorial and ran to the dollar store to stock up on faux floral supplies.
I made one flower pin.
Then another. And another.
And...
Just a few more; 17 to be exact.
Using scrapbooking brads as the flower center made the assembly incredibly quick - I spent more time plucking and ripping the bouquets apart than I did constructing the pins!
However, a girl can only have so many floral accessories (or so I'm told); so I've decided to share! I plan on sharing some with sisters and friends, and of course, some With YOU!
If you would like to call 3 three of these flowers your own, leave me a comment; I will ship off a random grouping from my selection to one lucky commenter! The drawing will take place Tuesday evening (April 28th) - GOOD LUCK!
p.s. Be sure to check out the tutorial for yourself - they are so fun and easy to put together, and would make a perfect Mother's Day adornment!

Very cute! I would LOVE to win some!
They are wonderful! Too bad I have about a million things on my "to make" list already!
Adorable! Thanks for the giveaway!
Love free stuff, especially free CUTE stuff. Thanks!
I have been looking for brads that you have been using in Ca. where do you find yours? I love them! By the way I have 2 little girls and would love some cute things for there hair.
Very cute. Hope I win... I'm so busy working on some of your past projects, plus a few of my own, I don't know when I'd possibly have time for these!
I saw this tutorial on her site too- you did a much better job than I would have making them!!! They look great and I always enjoy checking out your crafty-ness (is that a word?)! :)
I love these pins! They'd be so fun on a bag or a jacket. Or a headband!
I just saw this tutorial today too and thought it was great! Yours look wonderful. Thanks for all the great tutorials. Last week I made a skirt and a fabric flower tank from your tutorials.
I would love some of those lowers! Beautiful!
So cute!! I would love to have some pretty flower pins!!
Oh super fun! I make your fabric flower pins before and loved them.
My sisters and I used them to embellish our hair during a funky luau!
oh yes yes yes! so cute :)
I've just recently added you to my blog roll and I just have to tell you I love your ideas and tutorials. My daughters favorite skirt is one made out of a towel from Target. Super cute flower pins too! Thanks!
I would love to win some georgeous flowers to brighten my day. It's 4:30 in the morning and i have a terrible cold and cannot sleep... I could use the breath of fresh air and beauty of flowers!
I love them!

They look great! I'd love to win some!
They turned out really pretty. And if one is good, seventeen must be better! My daughter loves to add things like this to her outfits. If I was a good mom, I'd consider doing this project with her... But it'd be so much easier to win a couple!
Thanks for the giveaway!

Adorable!! I will have to try some myself...how fun. Thanks for the tutorial link. Your site is such an inspiration to me!
I also hit the dollar store and made a few myself! But I would love to win some of yours!
they came out GREAT...I can't wait to try myself! I have some extra flowers laying around!
These are adorable! You have such a great eye for putting things together. Thanks for giving some away! I stumbled across your blog a few weeks ago and have tried the peg dolls and the circle flower embelishments. You have wonderful ideas!

A girl can never have too many flower pins!
Oh.. Oh... Me... Me...!
They look great!
Adorable! Aren't flower projects addicting? Over the weekend I made a similar one but made it into a baby headband. Apparently everyone has flower power on the brain! Check out the tutorial on my blog if you're looking for another project to do with leftover silk flowers. Thanks!
Love the pins...how cute and easy!

Great blog! I just discovered your blog recently, and have gone back and read all your posts! I love your ideas, and greatly admire the execution thereof.

These are wonderful!! Being a military family stationed overseas we get a very limited supply of craft supply choices. At the base we are at now, we have almost no choice, so having the opportunity to maybe win some is just "OVER THE TOP"!!!
