Crepe paper flowers~14 days of crafting~

Posted on February 6, 2013 by Kristin

I am so happy to be part of the Fourteen Days of Crafting!

I made these cute and easy flowers using crepe paper from the dollar store and hot glue, super easy!

Take your crepe paper and start to wrap it around to form your flower. Add a dab of hot glue at the bottom every couple of inches to hold the flower in place.

Begin pulling the top back a little to open the flower up. Keep going until you are happy with the size of the flower. Now you can fluff the flower out completely.

I decided to run some fishing wire through the flowers along with some fake rose petals to make a garland.

Don’t forget to check out the rest of the great ideas being shared throughout this week by these amazing and fabulous ladies.

Paper Napkin Flowers~Tutorial

~Hi Friends~

I am so happy it is Friday! Time to relax and hang out with family and friends, YAY! I made some paper flowers during the week using some napkins, so simple, perfect for adding a splash of color for Valentines Day.

Buy some colorful napkins in differen’t sizes, I found mine at the dollar store.

Scallop the edges with some scissors. Unfold and stack the napkins on top of each other, the smallest napkins goes last. (I used 4 napkins but you could use more or less depending upon how big or small you want your flowers to be)
