Fabric Flower Hair Things

My friend has twins and she wants to have matching hair accessories for her girls, but they can get pricey. She found a lot of hair things she liked on Etsy...which has a million things to pick from. So, I decided I would try to make some of my own....because I love her little ones so much! =)
 And I've only just begun! =)
 I think these are my all-time favorites!! 
The heart is a felted sweater...they are HUGE but I think 
they would look adorable on a winter beanie. =)
 The flower petals are felt and the middle is cotton fabric.
 This actually is an old shirt that I could never get rid of and I saved it for a special project...
the awesome thing is that it already had the bead work on it...totally saved me a lot of time!! =)
 Ok, so these are super cutie too! =)
I thought they needed something a little more formal. =)

I have a ton more that I want to make. I found some amazing 
tutorials and techniques that I want to try. Check out my list of favorites:
Braided and Twisted Flower - fun and easy...something different
Tshirt Flower - I LOVE reusing "old" things to make "new" things
Sewn Fabric Flower - this is so pretty, very simple, but you need a sewing machine
Silk Flower - super pretty, easy if you don't mind playing with a little bit of fire =)
Felt Flower - these are so classy looking
Rolled Felt Flowers - NO SEW =) very cute and simple to do
Fun Felt Flower - crazy nuts! and I can't wait to make it!!!
Artificial Flower and Fabric Flower - made both and they turned out great!
Ribbon Flower - I think I like her version better...I have to find some sparkly beads
Fabric Flower with Button - LOVE this one, need to get a button kit
Another Felt Flower - this one is my FAV can't wait to make this!!

There are plenty more to choose from!! It's actually quite overwhelming the different types of techniques and styles of flowers that you can make! Well, I'm think this will keep me busy for a little while. =) Share your pictures...I would love to see your versions of these different fabric flowers! Have fun accessorizing!!! =P
