“Living is easy with eyes closed… “Well, maybe not when you’re trying to choose between all the adorable papers in Lori’s new Strawberry Fields collection! From the sweet gingham patterns to cheerful strawberry prints, this collection instantly transported me to my own little version of Strawberry Fields.
I combined the Strawberry Fields Collection with two of Lori’s adorable files. A charming berry basket that you can find here in the shop and some little strawberry boxes that you can also find here in Lori’s Shop . This project perfectly captures that carefree feeling of a sunny summer afternoon.
So here we go with how to put these little cuties together. I did have my hot glue gun out just in case I needed it.
1. Start with a strawberry, fold along score lines…there is hole an all 6 tops for your brad. Adhere the 1 st petal edge with the little flap to the 6th petal.
2. Insert a brad through one of the petals and begin shaping your strawberry…you simply pull each petal over the brad and practice patience here…lol, it took me a bit but I got it. All six petals layer over that one little brad.
3. Once you have all your petals overlapped, the strawberry begins to take shape into a little pouch or box. Open the brad prongs now and seal your little strawberry.
I glued my little tops on instead of messing and fighting with that little brad any longer. The added buttons and twine to each one. Adorable.
