Tissue Paper Flowers

Mothers Day is right around the corner. I will be posting easy recycled ideas for presents until the big day.

EASY IDEA NUMBER ONE:
                                   Tissue Paper Flowers

Step One:
Supplies- Two colors of tissue paper (what are your moms favorite colors),scissors,pipe cleaner,twistie,or green floral wire.

Step Two:
Cut out 4 squares of each color and alternate them as above. TIP  - bigger squares bigger flowers, smaller squares smaller flowers

Step Three:
Fold one side down about half an inch.
Flip The Paper and Fold down on that side. Keep this up until the paper reminds you of a polka playing accordion. 

Step Four:
Add what ever you decided to use. (twistie,floral wire, or pipe cleaner) 

Step Five:
Peel up one piece of tissue paper. Be Careful! It rips easily :)


Repeat Until All layers are Peeled up.


TA DA! I told you it was easy. 

I Hope you enjoyed the first idea. Next, A magazine Flower.....
