This is a simple way to make decorative glass flowers. :)

Step 1: Suplies

You'll need, a two liter bottle, preferably colored. a lighter, and scissors.

Step 2: Cutting

Cut the top off of the bottle, and save it.

Step 3: Cutting

Cut a square out of the bottle. You will need lots of squares.

Step 4: Shaping

You can either draw your shape, or just cut it out. A four leaf shape works best.

Step 5: Prep

Set the cut out shape on the lid of the old bottle.

Step 6: Melting

Then take your lighter, and melt the edges of the shape unit it curls up. This goes quite fast.

Step 7: Center Pieces

I had a ton of these tin beads. But you can use any kind of very small object. Beads or stones work well.

Step 8: Glueing

Put in a bit of hot glue, and set in the beads. Many of the flowers middles were hard to reach. so i just shoved glue inside, and scooped up beads into it, then shook out the ones that didn't stay.

Step 9: Leaves

You can also cut and melt some leaf shapes.

Step 10: A Branch

Then you must find a suitable branch, to glue the flowers onto. They are very light so you can choose a thin branch.

Step 11: Glueing Again

Then carefully glue he flowers and leaves in place. You will want two leaves near the end of the branch to be glued unevenly so that when inside a jar, the branch will be held upright.

Step 12: Decor

Find a suitable jar, and put it in! I got this one at 5Bellow

Step 13: All Finished

And that is all!
