Learn to Make Paper Flowers!

A demonstration of how to make flowers from tissue paper. Blogged at http://feelingfuzzy.blogspot.com. Come by and visit!
The paper size you need is: 35 x 25cm / 14 x 10 inches.
Or you can use any paper size in a similar ratio - basically a rectangle.
The tissue paper that we buy in Australia is at a standard size, and you can just fold it in quarters to get the perfect rectangle.
I used 7 rectangles, but for a fuller flower you can use more.

i do it different and an easier way:

9 peices of tissue paper over eachother.

fold it like a fan (1.5 inches) back and forth.

fold in half to mark middle.

put wire round middle and make loop.

pull it out and seperte all the bits so it is a ball. cut the edges round

put string rount the loop you made with string

hang up

Nina, our methods are pretty similar I think - thanks for posting yours up! I'm sure it will help some people out with their flowers :)

i tried this and i just ended up with a big fan!

Once you have the fan, you need to pull out each leaf of paper away from each other to create the petals :)

Should I fold the paper 1 by 1 and place them together or fold them together ?

[Emma Peters]

Put all the paper together one on top of the other and then fold

"Put it on a package or hang it from a roof." Well that escalated quickly!
