While at the Dollar Tree yesterday, I picked up a couple scarves.
I cut up one of them into some strips of varying sizes.
Then I rolled the strips up into those fabric flowers you see everywhere.
Glued the fabric flowers with fabric glue and hot glue (I really did use both—no reason, just because).
I took some buttons off a jacket that was thrifted.
Glued them onto some of the flowers.
Then glued them onto my scarf. You could hand-sew them on as well, if you’d rather.
And there you have it—my mini tutorial for my $2.00 scarf. Super easy, super quick.
And I’m sure totally unoriginal, but I did it anyways:).
Here are just a few of the scarves I have in my favorites folder that I’d like to make someday.
Vermillion Rules: T-shirt Ruffle Scarf(I actually have made one of these before for a friend, but have yet to make one for myself)
So let’s see them! Link to your own tutorial for a scarf (or cowl, or whatever else they call them these days). You could also link to someone else’s scarf tutorials you have tried or would like to.

I like how many things you did ‘because I wanted to’. ;) hehe. Your scarf looks really cute! I love colors like yellow to brighten up a gloomily cold day. I don’t have much for scarves right now because I keep swearing up and down I’ll make myself a few. Guess how that’s working out for me. suuuuuuuuper good. For some insane reason I’ve got at least 8 of the Aesthetic Nest Baby Cloche/Toddler Cloche floating around, but I somehow haven’t got a moment to make myself a scarf. Hm.

Your yellow scarf: gorgeous! I love the idea of matching the flowers exactly, instead of using a different complementary fabric. For a mere extra dollar, huge design points!

I too love scarves :) I just wish there was more occasion to wear them where I live. :(

I have a new love for scarves. I linked my newest that I made for my daughter. I have a link party going on at my blog “A Week of FELT!” I hope you can swing by!

totally cute!!! Used the rosettes on a purse I just made using a pattern from your purse week.

I love the color of your scarf! I have to go hit up my dollar tree this weekend – i’ve gotten a bunch of new plain tees that I’d like to dress up with a scarf.
