flower face pin

I wear this pin on my winter coat and always get complements.  Here's what you need:
1 large flat silk flower this is a Gerber daisy
Picture of a face printed from the computer or cut from a magazine.  This one came from  graphicsfairy.com
clear spray
1 glass glob you can buy bags of these from the dollar store or a craft store
Heavy duty glue like E6000
Small piece of felt
Pin back
Cut out your face by placing the glass glob over it and tracing around the edge,  Spray with sealer then glue onto the back flat part of the glue.
Take your flower apart and glue the layers of petals together.  Glue your face to your petals.  Attach a pin back (or a safety pin in a pinch) by sewing or gluing it to a 2" circle of felt. attach the petal to the felt and weight down to dry.
It's about as easy to make several of these at one time so make some for your friends or family.
