Get ready to Makealong!

My spring/summer '24 series has now begun! Join me to learn how to make felt flowers in my FREE monthly series. This is the fun and easy way to learn felt flower making from the comfort of your home.

FAQs

My Makealong is broken down into single projects each month which, when combined together at the end of the series, will make a beautiful felt flower display. The templates and video tutorials are sent to you by email each month, so you never miss a make. 

The spring/summer series runs from February to June. Although it has already begun, you can still catch up by joining my email mailing list.

There are again two project options - a bouquet or a flower hoop/wreath. The flower designs will be the same whichever make you choose. As always, I'll be keeping the final displays a secret so you won't know what you're making until each project arrives.

A full list of tools and materials required for the spring/summer series, along with suggested colour palettes, can be found in my Makealong Series Guide (PDF). Supplies packs containing the materials needed are also available in my shop, but you can also choose to use your own materials. You will need scissors and a glue gun – plus a few other essential tools – to take part. You will need access to a printer to print the templates for each project.

Each project will be released in my main email newsletter at the end of each month - if you don't already receive my emails, simply click here to join my mailing list. My emails also bring you news, updates, special offers and new product releases throughout the year. 

My project emails include a list of tools and materials needed to take part, as well as printable templates and a video tutorial. Full step-by-step PDF instructions are available through membership of my Happy Flower Makers Club.

SVG and DXF files are available exclusively through my Happy Flower Makers Club.

Yes! I am also planning a shorter autumn series, followed by a special Christmas series to end 2024.

My Makealong project archive is now exclusively available to Blossoms and Blooms members of my Happy Flower Makers Club.

Makealong emails are usually sent out on the last Friday of each month. Sometimes the emails can end up in spam/junk, so it's worth checking there too. If you still can't find it, simply pop me a message and I'll forward you the project links you've missed. To access previous Makealong series, you will need to be a Blossoms or Blooms member of my Happy Flower Makers club.

Hello! I'm Hannah, founder and creator of The Handmade Florist. My first Makealong began in 2021, when I wanted to offer an easy way to learn felt flower making through monthly projects. I couldn't have predicted just how popular that series would be! Since then, I've run two Makealongs each year - a spring/summer series and autumn/winter series. Felt flower making has opened up a whole world of colour and creativity to me and I can't wait to share it with you!
