Paper Flower


As viewed on Martha Stewart.

As a child.  I remember making these out of kleenex.  I would fold them up like a fan, tie them up with a pipe cleaner and open them up to reveal a beautiful flower.  I remember spraying them with perfume to make them smell nice.   I loved giving them away as small gifts to people.  This is the same exact technique but on a much LARGER scale.  Using  7 layers of tissue paper (the kind used in gift bags) and some small guage wire instead of a pipe cleaner.

Egg Crates


Egg crates into roses. This was a fun project for the kids to get into. We took regular grocery store egg crates and tore them up into pieces. We dyed them with water colors and glued them together. The kids enjoyed giving them away to their friends.
