Shower Invitations

A silk flower is the perfect front on a feminine invitation for a bridal or baby shower.

Materials and Tools:

silk flower
hot glue
magnet
card stock
sheet metal
paper clip

Steps:

1. Remove the flower from its stem, making the back as flat as possible. It may be necessary to glue the layers of the petals together with hot glue when the stem is removed.

2. Hot glue a magnet to the back of the flower.

3. On the inside of the card, glue a piece of sheet metal cut into a small square or a paper clip in the spot behind where the flower will go.

4. Use the same treatment for Christmas ornaments or anything else to which a magnet can be glued.
