Hello Kitty Felt

Hello Kitty felt for my little niece birthday, however I'm unable to attend the party. I make about 10 of them, a mix of headband, brooch and baby headband of hello kitty felt.

I'm cutting the felt using Hello Kitty Sizzix die, the one with the bee body, but I chop the body away and just use the hello kitty head. 

If you would like to make one for your party, you may contact me at : mekarcandella@gmail.com for the pricing.

Princess Bubblegum Felt Headband

I never heard of Princess Bubblegum before, one day my cousin called and asking me to make a tiara like Princess Bubblegum for my niece  birthday party. Instead of making the tiara which I personally think it looked so funny, I  just make the princess face itself and make few headband and brooches.

Before I sew the mouth and stick her face, it really looked like an octopus...hehe..

Stick the face, tiara and additional flower by the side of the head, tadaaaa..... cute little Princess Bubblegum

Kakak Bear (that is what she address herself) turning 3 this year and her birthday was on 1st Sept, however everyone was busy during that time and ignore her birthday celebration, and she kept on nagging her mom and demand for a small party. Because she like Princess Bubblegum so much, so the birthday theme was The Adventure of Princess Bubblegum


The headband not only suitable for kids, even an adult love it so much. So if you plan for birthday party and would like to customize any goodies for your kids, you may contact me and we can work together. Email me at : mekarcandella@gmail.com

Felt Rose Tutorial

Felt Rose Tutorial, the first tutorial from Mekar, I will share more and more soon, sharing is caring right. Anway, here are the pictorial steps oh how to make felt rose like the photo above.


You need about 5 pieces of round shape cut of felt fabric, or you may style it a bit to make a curvy round, so that the rose petal will look more nicer. The diameter will be around 5.5-6cm

Cut those shape into half. If you use more than 5, you may get a bigger flower, and if you want smaller flower, you may size down the diameter of your round shape felt fabric.

 Arrange it like this and sew (jahit jelujur).



You will get something like this.

Then you just roll it nicely, make sure the back of the rose are even, so that you will get a neat rose petals.

Sew at the back of your rose, or you may just glue it if you are lazy to sew.
