Hi this is Jenifer here with you today to share a quick and easy way to create some of those fancy beaded centers that you see at the craft store.

Using a hot glue gun just put a little bit of glue on the bead and then wrap the May Arts string beads around the pearl or bead you are using as the center and put another small bit of glue at the other end.  Quick and easy.  I will definitely have to get more colors of the string beads.

So now what can you do with these centers?

You can layer the May Arts box of flowers together and then using another small dab of hot glue adhere the beads to the center 🙂  Aren’t they lovely!!  Imagine all the possibilities with all of the different colors of flowers and string beads that May Arts carries, it almost makes me giddy.

 So now that you have these lovely flowers now what?

You can stitch them down on a piece of May Arts elastic.  Now you have an instant headband for special occasion or anytime.

 There are many different projects you could use these fun flowers on.  I hope you give them a try, leave me a link if you do I would love to check them out.
