Homemade Daffodils

 For Easter this year, we made homemade daffodils for gifts.
I am hoping our real daffodils will open in a few weeks.

I found this idea from Teri at White Sheep Farm

She does a great job explaining the how to do for this fun spring craft.

 I did not use a microwave to dry my flowers, I hand held each one and dried with a hair dryer. I could easily shape my daffodil this way.



 My boys helped me dye each flower.


I used hot glue to attach the flower to the stick.

My boys were very excited to bless grandma and their aunt with homemade daffodils.

Thank you to Teri, for a great spring time craft.
