Button flowers
These simple button flowers first made an appearance on the blog a year ago, and are still one of our most visited posts! They looks so beautiful but are brilliantly easy and cheap to make. Win, win!

'Spring has sprung' felt flower bouquet
Today's project has been influenced by my lovely Mother's Day tulips and by our Netherlands project in the book. But the finishing touches were provided by my 6 year old studio assistant today who was too sick to go to school, but miraculously recovered when I started cutting out the felt. She has designed the flowers and added the genius touches of detail on the leaves.
These flowers are super easy to make, and because felt never fades, they really are everlasting flowers. If you don't have the book, you can buy it online...
They're really quick to make. We used scraps of felt and a few pipe cleaners. Draw flowers onto paper to use as templates and then cut out the flowers and leaves. A couple of tiny snips in the centre of the shapes, feed the pipe cleaner through and you're done!

Marvellous marbled cookie pops!
These cookies look super impressive but are really easy to make!
And if it takes a few goes to get the marbling right, you might just have to eat the experiments along the way!

Beautiful bright button flowers!
Here in Sydney, Australia we are starting to see signs that Spring is on the way!
We thought we'd bring you one of our favourite projects to celebrate the start of warmer weather and beautiful new growth. It's also one of our simplest and quickest projects too, so you'll be able to whip up a bunch of these beauties in no time.
If your thoughts are turning to Autumn and Fall, you could make some flowers to keep Spring with you all the time!
Keep an eye on the blog for a super sweet Fall project in the coming weeks!
