Do It Yourself Project: Fabric Floral Silverware Ties

From Victoria:

Need a little something to liven up your seating area? These sweet fabric flowers will tie your table together nicely. They would be a sweet addition for a bridal shower or garden party as well!

What You’ll Need:
Coordinating fabric
Twine
Scissors

Cut 7 petals out of your main fabric. Freehand them for an imperfect natural look, if you’d prefer uniformity find a petal from a flower you like in nature and trace it for a template! Cut one small circle in a coordinating fabric to be the center of your flower. Fold each petal about a quarter inch up, in the center of your fold make a small cut. Cut a small hole in the circle as well.

Cut your twine to size and using both ends thread through the cut in the petals one by one. Thread through the center circle lastly. Fan out your petals and slide your silverware into the back loop of the twine. Tighten with a knot and bow to complete the twine stem.
