In this instructable we will be making a Sunflower Brooch which you can attach to your shirt or jacket.

You will need:

- Scissors,

- 2 yellow sheets of foam (28 cm by 21 cm minimum size if you are making 12 brooches),

- 2 white sheets of foam (28 cm by 21 cm minimum size if you are making 12 brooches),

- Craft glue,

- 12 safety pins (if you are making 12 brooches),

- Compass,

- 30 cm ruler,

- and Pencil or Pen.

Step 1: Mark Vertical Lines on Yellow Sheet of Foam

Use pencil or pen to mark five vertical lines separated by 7 cm on two yellow sheets of foam.

Step 2: Mark Horizontal Lines on Yellow Sheet of Foam

Use pencil or pen to mark four horizontal lines separated by 7 cm on two yellow sheets of foam.

Step 3: Mark Circles With Compass

Use compass to mark 24 circles on two yellow sheets of foam.

Step 4: Cut Out the Squares

Use scissors to cut out the 24 squares.

Step 5: Cut Out the Circles

Use scissors to cut out the 24 circles.

Step 6: Mark Four Horizontal Lines on Two White Sheets of Foam

Use pencil or pen to mark four horizontal lines separated by 7 cm on two white sheets of foam.

Step 7: Mark Vertical Line on Two White Sheets of Foam

Use pencil or pen to mark 29 vertical lines separated by 1 cm on two white sheets of foam.

Step 8: Cut Out the Horizontal Lines

Use scissors to cut out the horizontal lines.

Step 9: Cut Out the Vertical Lines

Use scissors to cut out the vertical lines.

You will end up with 29*6 = 174 spikes. However, you only need 12 Brooches * 12 Spikes per Brooch =144 spikes. Thus you will have 30 spikes left over that you can use for other projects.

Step 10: Insert the Safety Pin Inside the Flower

The three photos show the steps in inserting the safety pin. The double loopy/circle end of the pin goes through the foam twice, through the two holes. The u-shape end of the safety pin stays on the same side.

This procedure is similar to the one used in the following instructable: https://www.instructables.com/id/Camomile-Flower-B...

Repeat the procedure 12 times for each of the brooches.
