So lately I've grabbed an addiction to felt! Now there are a million different felt flowers you can make and many of them will look great on a ring. This just happens to be one I had already used my Sizzix Big Shot to cut out. Call me lazy? (Hey don't call me lazy I'm writing this tutorial damn it! Your just sitting on the couch reading it!)
If you don't have a Sizzix you can find the pre-cut pieces here.

Start off with your die cut piece of felt. I used the Sizzix 3d flower die. This is what it looks like straight out of the die cutter (is that really what it is called??).

Once you unravel your perfect die cut it should look something like this. A long scalloped piece.

Now there is really no right or wrong way to roll this up. I tend to be a little glue happy so here is how I do it. I put a dot of glue on the very end and then fold it over. Then you will see there are, what I refer to as, points. Give each point a dot of glue and wrap. I do a few dots at a time, wrap it around then a few more dots.
