Let the papers dry then follow the directions to make your flower from the already water colored paper! Here’ the colors were overlapped and when laid out to dry, a bit of metallic gold was added to the tips with a paintbrush. The second way : Add the color before you put the flower together.Īfter you’ve cut scallops in your 3 cone shapes…unfold the cones and dip the tips in the very watered-down paint colors. If you like the natural flower then you’re all done but you can add color, too.įirst technique : use very watered down paint (in paper bowls) in red, orange and metallic gold… simply dip the tips of the flowers in the watercolors and let the watery paint soak (just a little) into the paper to tint the flower… dip 1/2 the tips in red, then the other 1/2 in orange and then dip some of the tips in the watered down metallic gold! Now, cut a section of floral wire and wrap around the pinched paper under the flower around your stem…twist to secure the wire and trim.Pinch the papers together underneath the flower…now, turn and continue pinching…can you see your flower blooming?!.Cut a tiny slit in the center of the 3 papers and insert your wooden floral pick ( take off the thin copper wire from your pick before inserting-the wire is useless for this project.).You’ll end up with a small, a medium and a large scalloped cone! Now unfold these little wonders! Do the same with 2 more filters but cut different sizes when you cut your scallops.Take a filter and fold like the first 3 photos below, until you have a cone shape…Now cut little scallops in your cone.Who would have thought that coffee filters, not terribly glamorous after all, could be used to produce lovely paper flowers? You could use this simple pattern for boutonnieres, party favors, place setting embellishments, the possibilities are endless! Tutorial and photos by NOTE: You can add a rhinestone button or a pearl in the center with hot glue. You can use a twig as a firm stem, make a small hole in the bottom of the flower base and add another dab of glue to hold the twig in place. Dab a dot of glue at the bottom to the shape. When you release the coil, the paper will spring back a bit. Step 3: Starting from the outside, roll the paper in until you reach the center of the spiral. Don't worry about consistent ring sizes, the irregularity will keep it interesting. (Try different sized squares for different sized flowers, or patterned paper for a splash of a different color!) Step 1: Draw a spiral on a 6圆" square piece of paper. These three projects are shown from very easy to more elaborate. You can make just one flower and place it in a simple vase for a centerpiece, or make a bouquet of various sizes and colors and patterns for a one-of-a kind style! Making handmade flowers can be a daunting task, but these step-by-step do-it-yourself ways of making paper flowers are simple and easy. 5/4/20 PAPER FLOWER PROJECTS ✿ DIY GIFT FOR MOM ON MOTHER’S DAY
