Approximate Time: about 30 minutes
Supplies:
- red felt square or scraps
- white felt square or scraps
- hot glue gun and glue sticks

Instructions:
- Create 2 heart patterns from card stock, with one at least 1/4 smaller than the other.
- Cut 5 of the larger size hearts from red felt.
- Cut 5 of the smaller hearts from white felt.
- Align the point of each white heart to the point of each red heart, and glue white hearts to red hearts.
- Pinch together the point of each heart and apply some glue to hold each one in place as shown.
- Cut a 2 inch circle from white or red felt for the base, and glue the points of the heart to the center of the circle to create the flower.

- Turn flower over and glue on a pin back.

What a great idea! With a little tweaking, you could make great St. Patrick's Day four leaf clovers too! :)
