Step 1:

Grab your coloured construction papers and choose the colours you want your flowers to be!

Step 2:

Use the compass to make a perfect circle. Repeat these steps for every colour of flower you make.

Step 3:

Cut out the circle for every colour.

Step 4:

Fold each circle into fours.

Step 5:

Then fold the folded piece in half.

Step 6:

Draw a zigzag shape on the opened side of the piece. Or you can use the template to draw the shape.

Step 7:

Cut along the zigzag mark as best as you can, this will make the shape of the flower.

Step 8:

Make some vertical cuts on the piece from the opened top side. Don’t cut all the way through.

Step 9:

Open up the fold to reveal a beautiful circle revealing a myriad of thin petals.

Step 10:

Make a cut on the circle piece. Don’t cut all the way through, just until there is a space in the bottom center.

Step 11:

Start rolling the paper up from the cut area.

Step 12:

After rolling it all the way you’ll get a cone, glue the end to secure it.

Step 13:

Cut out a green piece of paper out of construction paper to make a stem. Make it the length that you want!

Step 14:

Roll the paper diagonally starting from any corner.

Step 15:

After rolling it all the way you’ll get a stick shape, glue it and secure it.

Step 16:

Apply glue on the top of the stick.

Step 17:

Then glue the flowers bottom on the glue area, and let it dry.

Step 18:

Cut out two leaves shapes from the TEMPLATE.

Step 19:

Glue the leaves on the stick and you’re done!
