PAPER FLOWERS

Posted by Bizim Boncuklar at 10:25 PM

I have seen this at craftstylish.com and really liked it. I hope I can find some time to make one for myself. Here is how to do it:


You need:

1- White translucent paper- Vellum paper

2- Floral wire- 14-16 gauge should be fine

3- Green floral tape

4- A 3" circle template- a juice glass would be good template

5- Scissors

6-Good quality paper glue

7- Needle nose pliers


Cut out 3" circles from your paper. You will need one disk per blossom. Fold each circle into eights and firmly press all creases. Trim the edges as shown in the illustration.


Unfold the disk and lay it flat. Trim again as shown on the second illustration.


Glue part A to part B and hold until dry. With your needle nose pliers form a small loop at one end of the floral wire and cover it with floral tape to form the pistil of the flower. Gently thread the wire through the center of the flower and tape the wire to make the stem of the flower. Attach two or more stems together by taping with the floral tape. Bend the stems to create the look you want and arrange in a vase.

You can find the complete instructions here.
