Crepe Paper Flowers 3



So here we go again, with another crepe paper flower





You'll need:
------------
Crepe Paper.
A small piece of  construction paper for the base of the flower
Glue

Steps:
------
- Cut petals from the crepe paper. You can stack crepe paper to cut a bunch of it. The number of petals will depend on how big the flower you want to make or how dense it will be.


- Take small circular piece of construction paper. Then put a dab of glue in the base of the petal and pinch a little.And then glue it to the edges of the construction paper. Just like the picture below.





- Keep gluing all around the edges. When the outer edge is done start gluing another layer of petals just inside the outer edge. Keep gluing till you get a nice looking flower. You can glue as much petals as you want depending on how you want your flower to look.


- For the center of the flower, I took a small piece of streamer, about 7-8 " and folded in half lengthwise. Then made fringes on one side, just like the picture below.


- After you have cut the fringes, start rolling from one end and roll the entire length.



- Stick this in the middle of the flower.
