Do you enjoy crafting? Easy Felt Flowers with Lollipops is one of our easy felt craft project ideas. This is a fun diy to make, and add to your Easter craft ideas. Or anytime you want to give a special handmade gift, filled with lollipops.
You can make a little spring magic come to life by putting them into the garden to surprise the kids on Easter. This spring crafts idea is one that anyone can do.
First, gather up the supplies for the flower project. Then follow the directions listed below. For this project, we received the lollipops for free and participated in #MagicofSpring. Our craft project, thoughts, and words are all our own.
Craft Supplies Checklist For Felt Flowers with Lollipops
Instructions for Making Felt Flowers on a Dowel with Lollipops
Directions for making felt flowers
Directions for the flower lollipop
Start by cutting out shapes of flower petals from the felt. You want them larger than the lollipops, and you will need about 6 per flower, minimum.
Also, cut out two to three leaves from the felt. An easy way to cut leaves is by cutting a rectangle and going point to point on the diagonal, keeping the center larger than either side to create the leaf shape.
Taping the lollipops to the dowel
Next, get at least three lollipops and you will tape them together with the wooden dowel.Note: I reinforced mine with wire as I wanted mine to last longer and be more durable. You could skip this step, but they may not hold together as well.
Then you'll begin to hot glue the petals onto the sticks just below the lollipops. Do this step all the way around until it looks like a flower.

Next, use a block of Styrofoam, a mason jar, or place it into a vase while you continue making more.
Ideas for using them
The finished felt flower bouquet with lollipops makes a fun, unique, handmade gift! For so many occasions or reasons! Teacher's Appreciation, Mother's Day, cheering up a friend, spring, Easter gifts, just to name a few!
When you get a whole bunch of felt flowers with lollipops made you can have the kids plant magic jelly beans (seeds) and later go to the garden to see the flowers that popped up. The next morning, after you put them into your garden.
Some other spring crafts ideas I usually do are set up a candy bowl or two full of Dum Dums, and jelly beans in bags for the kids. Here's our video of our little pop-up garden with #TheMagicOfSpring
With so many spring gatherings, I enjoy making my jelly bean cake with two colors tutorial as a treat for the spring festivities for the family. I also like creating spring bannersto make things more festive. Then we enjoy a fun garden party that includes painting eggs along with other activities.
What activities or ways do you enjoy celebrating Easter?
When I was making the tutorial for my grandkids, they couldn't resist trying to make their own. To keep them busy, I cut out felt oval shapes of three sizes of various colors, and cut a tiny slit in the center. Then, I let them slide the lollipop stick down the slit to add them to the base of their lollipop for their own flower lollipop.
They'd take it off to eat the lollipop and make another lollipop flower.

These are such cute ideas. Dumdums are the perfect size for little ones. I will have to wait until my Gbaby is a little older to make the flowers though.
Hi Stacie, You could make them for spring and just put the candy in a bowl like I did. They are the perfect size for little ones. We love all their flavors. Thanks for stopping by!
