Paper flower crafts – materials needed
To make the flowers from this tutorial, you will need scissors, floral wire, white cardboard, crepe paper and a brush.
Step 1: Cut the crepe paper in half. Cut two pieces of floral wire, each 30 cm long.
Step 2: Crumple the first piece of crepe paper into a ball and cover one end of the wire with it.
Step 3: Cut a circle from the white paper and paint it. Cut several petals from the colored crepe paper and glue them onto the circle.
Step 4: Make several flowers, coloring each one in a different shade.
Imaginative decoration with paper flowers
When you're finished crafting, children can help you turn the paper flowers into cheerful decorations. Fasten the flowers to tree branches with floral wire and decorate your desk. Glue paper flowers to the nursery wall, or connect individual blooms to make a festive garland for a birthday party. You can also decorate a cake with paper flowers, glue a bloom to a hair band for a fairy or princess costume, or attach each flower to wire and wrap the stem with paper. Place the bouquet in a vintage-style vase, and it is ready.
