Here's what you need to make Succulents from Felt:
- Kunin Classic Felt Craft Sheets – Neon Green, Apple Green, Pirate Green (one each)
- Mini Terra Cotta Flowerpots, 2” in diameter – Three
- Glue Gun and Glue Sticks
- Scissors – I love my Fiskars!
- MONO Twin Permanent Marker from Tombow
- DIY Felt Succulents Pattern Sheet – download below ⇓
Here's how to create Succulents for a Tiered Tray:
STEP ONE
To begin the DIY Felt Succulents, gather all supplies. Remove labels from flowerpots and felt sheets. Print, and cut out DIY FELT SUCCULENT PATTERNS by downloading below ⇓. If making more than one set, trace onto chipboard and cut out with scissors.
STEP TWO
Trace each set of succulent shapes onto one of the colors of felt with a permanent marker according to the instructions on the pattern sheet.
STEP THREE
Place a small line of hot glue in the center of one of the smallest succulent petals. Fold the petal in half, at an angle, and pinch to secure. Add a few dots of hot glue to the folded edge and roll to create the center of the succulent.
STEP FOUR
Place a small line of hot glue in the center of the rest of the smallest succulent petals. Fold the petals in half, at an angle, and pinch to secure. Add a few dots of hot glue along the folded edge and layer onto the center of the succulent.
STEP FIVE
Continue to glue the rest of the medium and large succulent petals in half, at an angle. Add the folded succulent petals to the base in a circular pattern. Follow the petal counts on the pattern sheet for each of the three succulents.
Plant in mini terra cotta flowerpots.
