Kanzashi Flowers

I've been seeing these things all over the crafty forums I follow, and they are surprisingly easy to make. Once upon a time, I worked as a supervisor at a Pier 1, and I bought some fabric napkins there on clearance. I have been saving them for a few years now, trying to think of the perfect project on which to use them. I went with the kanzashi flowers. These are going to be in the Etsy shop on hair pins/clips, and I am going to use a couple of them in a swap I'm doing for some fabric. But I think they're really cute, and my Mom keeps coming up with ideas to use them. Brooches, bracelets, necklaces, on a skirt or pants, pillows, bags, etc. So all in all, a cute and cheap way to add a little something extra.

I definitely think the hairpins and a necklace would be so cute! I'm going to do another several hundred thousand, knowing me. I'm also thinking that I might do some for hairpins for my sis-in-law's upcoming wedding (I'm a co-matron of honor, and am thrilled to be a part of her special day!).

Cost breakdown of these: $0.78 cents for the fabric
Buttons were free (in stash)
Total cost, per flower: $0.06
