This is more of an idea for an idea
You will need:
- Felt
- A felt-tip pen (Wait, felt can't write on felt! What kind of stupid name is that?)
- Scissors
- embroidery thread
- A needle
- Super Glue
- Basic studs (See Vocab Tab)
How it's done:
Real simple: draw a small flower shape on the felt and cut it out. Using the needle and embroidery thread stitch a couple of stitches which cross each other at various angles in the middle of the flower. Make sure to start and end off with a double stitch to keep it secure. Super glue the stud to the back of the flower.

They can withstand wind, water, sleep and even violent hugs.
Cool Factor: 5/10
The cool part about these is that they're not just felt flower earrings. They represent endless possibilities for earrings made of felt. They represent hope and versatility and the dying art of stitching stuff. They represent colour and peace and happiness and all those other reasons hippies protested against war. All you see are the flowers though.
