I remember Marimekko from when I was little especially the boldflowers!
Theyve always intrigued me.

I got mine at the dollar store.
Draw your flowers out on your felt and cut them out.
These were the pieces I cut to assemble my flowers.
Use your hot glue gun to secure your flowers in place.
Ultimately, the stems didnt find their way onto my wreath.
They just didnt seem needed.
Then cut some cardboard smaller than your flower and hot glue it to the back.
You basically just want a little extra structure to keep your flower flat.
Then play around with your flowers and create an arrangement on your wreath.
For more dimension, venture to overlap the flowers a bit.
In the next step, Ill show you how to add height to individual flowers.
You will need to hold the toothpick in place until it dries.
The toothpick alone will not cut it.
Then slide your toothpick into the hole you just created.
Go around and attach all your flowers.
Some of the flowers will be hot glued directly to the wreath.
Not all of them require toothpicks, only the ones you want to stand out in the foreground.
Then you will want to add some ribbon to hang your wreath.
