1. Fan fold two sheets of tissue paper together. Back and forth, back and forth. (And I actually used 3 sheets on the largest flower)
2. tie the center. I used sewing floss, Martha used wire. Whatev.
3. Round the edges.
4. Fan it around until it makes a circle and tape. I used double sided because it's the best.
*Repeat two more times making each flower shorter.
5. Sew the three flower layers together. I used floss once again and sewed through one at a time then back up through all of them then back down.
6. Attach string to hang in between the second and third layer. I just kinda wrapped it around.
Tada!
Happy Spring wishing :)
They'd make a great craft for Mother's Day. I remember doing something like that when I was in kindergarten (no sewing though). I must have had quite the crafty kindergarten teacher.
ReplyDeleteHow big is that? The one I remember making is about the size of my cupped hands and was not flat, very fluffed.

I can remember doing something like this for Mother's Day too! This one is really big, around two feet in diameter, but I bet it I could easily be scaled down. You may have just inspired some future crafts! :)
