  3. With the wire cutters, cut a pipe cleaner in half. Using one of the halves, place the pipe cleaner end onto the smallest edge of the felt. Add a drop of hot glue to hold the pipe cleaner in place.

  4. Next start to roll the small edge with the pipe cleaner, adding a little hot glue as you go along to keep the flower together. When you reach the end, you may have to cut the felt a bit to go around the pipe cleaner.
