    Tissue Flowers Art Tutorial

    I’d love to share with you one of the simple flower crafts we use to add a pop of color to our classroom in the springtime. They could also be a nice craft for Mother’s Day, or to decorate for special events such as the Parent Appreciation Tea.

                      Flower Craft Tutorial  

    You will need: 
    *pipe cleaners
    *tissue paper petals
    *a button, and glue (a glue stick works fine).

    1. Put the pipe cleaner (stem)  through the button.

     

     

    2. Add a little glue on the underside of the button.

     

    3. Lay on the tissue petals overlapping… as many as you like. Add more glue as needed.

     

     

    4. Add another color on the bottom, or other colors of tissue. This is where students get creative! The more petals you add, the puffier the flower will be.
     
    5. Once dry, bend and crunch the petals upwards around the button very gently. 

     

    All done! So pretty! Put lots of different supplies out so students can make a lot of them, and try different ideas.
