Since June is a pretty big month for weddings I got to thinking about alternatives for fresh flowers.  From personal experience, flowers can be a pretty huge part of the wedding budget, which is a little frustrating since they really only last for that one day.  I have tried paper flowers with pretty fantastic results, but paper flowers can be fragile on occasion so for this post I searched and searched to find the best felt flowers out there. I have a pretty big love/hate relationship with felt.  I love that it is fairly cheap and it is relatively easy to work with, but I hate how projects using craft felt sometimes feel cheesy or too crafty.  These lovely crafters have come up with some pretty amazing faux felt flowers that you will have to try for yourself!

1. Anemone

Starting off is one of my favorite flowers. It reminds me of a poppy but with softer colors and Something Turquoise does a fantastic job of representing this flower in felt.

2. Daffodil

This cheerful flower is super easy to make, and to make things even better, While She Naps has even included a free printable pattern to help get your bouquet started!

3. Hydrangea

Love the look of flowers in your hair but hate the allergens that come with fresh flowers? Look no further than this adorable hydrangea hair clip from Pammy Dawn Designs! The tiny little flowers take a little more time to make, but the end result is worth it!

4. Dahlia

This flower definitely has a lot of tiny pieces to put together but Dahlias are so pretty and full of texture. Over at Not Martha she gives you an easy breakdown on how to put together this beautiful flower.

5. Succulents

Succulents are definitely having a moment right there and there are a ton of tutorials out there on how to make them. Over at Benzie Design they have a cute tutorial of how to make a pretty birch stump centerpiece.

6. Daisy

Daisies are some of the most cheerful flowers out there, so why not make some of your own that last forever. The How Joyful blog has figured out a way to make these cute flowers using very few materials.

7. Roses

Roses are the most popular around and can be used for just about every occasion. While Lia Griffith makes several types of felt flowers, her roses are by far my favorite take on the felt rose by far.

8. Rannunculus

I have to give out more praise to Something Turquoise. They really have mastered the art of making felt flowers over there. This Rannunculus is definitely worth a try, and while you are there check out the rest of their felt flowers and the beautiful bouquet they made with them.

9. Dandelions

I know, I know, technically a dandelion is a weed, but I still think they are super fun. Echos of a Dream loves dandelions and has created a very easy felt version for you to try out for yourself.

10. Tulips

Tulips always remind me of spring, and more specifically Easter. Unfortunately they never really seem to stay in bloom for very long. While She Naps has another great flower tutorial for tulips. A little heads up, while these are very easy to make, they do still require a little sewing.
