A cute little paper craft from whatscookingmom.in
A bit advanced, but a great idea for older kids!
MAKE IT:
Supplies:
- 10 Sheets of 8.5″ x 11″ ASTROBRIGHTS® PAPERS per flower {I did 4 layers on each flower. The biggest layer took 4 sheets, the next layer took 3, then 2 and then the center took 1 sheets.}
- Scissors
- Pen
- Low Temp Glue Gun
- Paper Trimmer
- Cardboard
1. Cut a 6.5″ circle out of cardboard. use a bowl and pen to trace a circle on the cardstock and then cut it out with scissors.
2. Use your paper trimmer to cut your colorful paper into rectangles. Cut all pieces of paper into 4.25″ x 5.5″, which is basically an 8.5×11 into fourths.
3. Then roll your pieces of paper into cone shape with a point in the center of one end and use a small dot of glue to hold in place. If you have kids helping you, I very highly recommend using a low temperature glue gun. Glue gun burns are not fun!
4. Then start gluing the first layer of cones all the way around the edge of the cardboard circle. The next layer glue the cones around a little inside of the outer layer, without cutting or trimming them. For the third layer, trim off about 2-3″ off the cone before gluing them on. And then for the center, cut off the tips of the cones and glue them into the center of the flower.
These paper flowers are great for any spring project too.
