While following along one of the many blogger post "parties" I came upon this twist on the fabric flower pin. A fabric flower pin made from a Men's Necktie!!!
The paisley tie was my first attempt. I love the multi-color flower made by twisting a tie that was designed to look like a giant pencil ... LOL
I think the trick to this project is to find a tie with a unique design - and proper pin placement on the back. I glued a piece of felt to the back and then attached the pin fixing . Before gluing on the pin I held the pin up next to several sweaters to determine what direction I wanted the "tail" to lay.
I get lots of comments on the pins when I wear them .... FUN FUN ... and different twist on the basic fabric flower pin.
