Gorgeous Upcycled Denim Flowers

From the blogger: "These denim flowers actually look like roses. They are made from the scraps of my other repurposed jeans crafts and DIYs. They are a fun, green, and pretty straightforward craft. In fact, I really enjoyed making the denim roses so much, I actually found it hard to stop. I made so many denim flowers that I had enough for a whole bouquet. If you make the roses in denim from different pairs of jeans, then you can create an indigo ombre effect with the bouquet. The roses can also be used to make napkin rings."
