Paper Flowers

These paper flowers are very fast and simple to make.

You will need.......

1. Paper ( I like to use old music sheets or old books.)

2. Wire hangers

3. Ribbon

4. Hot glue gun

5. Pliers

6. Scissors

Have fun...

First, straighten the hanger. Then you are going to want to cut about 15 inches of the wire. ( This is going to be your stem.)

Now you are going to make the petals; you can cut them freehand or you can cut them with a pattern. If you cut them without a pattern, then you will get more variety. You are going to want a variety of sizes-- about four or five--and a LOT of petals.

If you want you also can curve the tops of the petals before you glue them.

You start with the smaller petals and work your way up from there. You put a little hot glue on the wire end and place the first petal on. Then you start to assemble it as a rose, one petal at a time. Once you run out of small petals, you can move on to the next biggest.
