Flower branch

I've been filling vases with flowers, I love their smell and colors so much but it's a bit sad when they wither and I have to throw them out. So I thought I'd make some paper flowers that I can keep in my vase for a long time! I used paper napkins in green color for the leaves, yellow for the flowers and a couple of twigs that I painted white. Cut a round shape fold it a couple of times, scrunch the base and you've got a flower bloom, glue it on the twig. For the leaves cut a longer shape, fold it in half, scrunch the base and use glue to stick it on the twig. That's it simple and easy, hope you like it :-)

A bouquet for mom

My 4 year old nephew and I made this paper flower bouquet for his mom. It's pretty simple to make, all you need is colored paper, glue and pipe cleaners for stems. I cut circles in different sizes and a couple of funny looking flowers but in my defense I was cutting in a hurry because the little guy really loves gluing stuff. It was a challenge keeping up! After all the gluing was done I cut a little hole in the center, pulled a small part pipe cleaner through and then twisted it around. And voila you get a little flower arrangement, a perfect handmade gift for mother's day :-)
