Our first paper flower project was back in 2010 when we did crepe paper carnations. See full details here.
Today, whitneywpanetta of Look Between the Lines shared with us a lovely tissue paper puff project.

When we go out shopping, we like to sample food given by the promoters and always end up with lots of paper cups in hand. Instead of just disposing them, if they are used to serve you cereals or any dry food, chances are they are still clean. Let’s do Mother Nature a favour and recycle those paper cups. Let’s transform them into pretty flowers 🙂
Paper Cup Flower
See this paper cup? Don’t throw them away.
Let’s make a flower out of it 🙂
Cut all around the paper cup
Cut a circle out of craft foam and paste.
Any color of your choice.
Glue a craft stick at the back. Let it dry.
Your simple paper cup flower is done 🙂
Muffins are delicious. Today we are going to use muffin cups to make beautiful flowers 😀
Muffin cup flowers
We’ll need muffin cups
Paste them onto a piece of paper
Press to keep them in place
Use a coin as a guide and draw a circle on a color craft foam.
Paste the craft foam in the middle of the muffin cups
Like this 🙂
Cut strips out of brown craft foam and paste
Bend a green pipe cleaner and paste as the leaf
Repeat
You’re done 😀
The satisfaction I got from that smile of his – PRICELESS 😀
There’s nothing a mother loves more than a handmade handprint flower bouquet from the little one. This Mother’s Day, let’s get the little tots to do something for us 😛
Mother's Day Handprint Flower Bouquet
Draw your handprint on various colour papers.
Cut them out.
Paste them onto a piece of paper; the handprint being the petals.
Arrange and paste them until they form a flower.
Cut a piece of felt as the stalk and some heart shape as the leaves. Paste them.
Done! A bouquet of handprint flowers for Mommy! Boy, he doesn't look too happy 😛 😀
Fresh flowers are beautiful but they don’t last. This is my first time venturing into making paper flowers. Instead of using tissue paper, I used crepe paper instead.
Crepe paper carnation
I used crepe paper instead of tissue paper and pipe cleaner instead of the floral wire.
Accordion fold the crepe paper. Fold it once from one side to the other and fold again.

Loop the pipe cleaner in the middle and slowly pull and spread out the crepe paper.
I used pipe cleaner so that it can be looped around little girls' wrist as a corsage. Ideal as a wedding favor 😀
Mother’s Day is fast approaching. It will be nice to make a bouquet of this and present them to Mommies out there 🙂
