Flower Power

Don't you love it when you go to a store and come out with some great ideas!

While shopping in downtown Chattanooga 

I found a store that had some really cool looking things

like these carnival tickets made into flowers

I just fell in love with these and thought they would be super simple to make

I bought my carnival tickets at Walmart for around $2.50

I used hot glue and put just a dot of glue on the edges
to form the petals
then I hot glued the button in the middle

If you want your flower to have a stem, just glue a stick or branch 

to the underside

These flowers would also look great hanging on branches

I can think of so many ways to display these quirky little flowers
but I like mine sitting on an old sewing machine
in the corner of my living room

Carnival ticket flowers

Simple
and just, oh so cute!
