How to make EASY CREPE PAPER FLOWERS!
I just tried this today.. so easy..
see my blog for pics! For each flower, this is how I did it: * Tear off about a yard of the crepe paper streamer. You can find these at party stores, dollar stores for pretty cheap! They come in all sorts of fabulous colors! * Now kinda smush up the entire length of the streamer, fold it, smoosh it up. * Next, hold one end and start swirling the streamer around and around.. till you have a circle you are holding in your hand! Squish down to make it even more flatter. * Adhere to the front of your project, and finish off with either a brad, a button, or if you love to sew and have a sewing machine or even by hand, use some embroidery floss to finish off the center of the flower. Done! Making these was really easy... I think I'm gonna be on the lookout for some more colors and some colored embroidery floss! |
Very pretty flower. Clever. Thanks for sharing.

see my blog for pics! ummm? I opened your blog twice over and scrolled down searching for your crepe flowers but couldn't find them? Not sure why, I suspect it is at the top of your blog? Have you more than the two links showing here? |
Thanks for sharing

Great idea. The only problem with crepe paper is that if the crepe paper gets wet and touches something else that color is permanent. (yes I got mine wet and cannot get the color out) YOu can do the same thing with strips of tissue paper and the color does not run or ruin anything.
