This signature spring flower is a wonderful way to bring some much-needed light into your home decor, and we’re showing you how to make these beautiful blooms out of crepe paper. With this paper Tulip, you can even create a gorgeous Thanksgiving pop up cards and send it to your beloved ones.
And now, let’s get started~
What to need:
- Crepe paper pieces [Extra Fine: Chiffon, White, Cypress] (according to the template)
- Scissors
- Low-Temperature Hot Glue Gun
- Art Markers (pink, yellow)
- 18 Gauge Floral Wire
- Floral Tape
What to do:
MAKING TULIP STAMEN
Step 1: To make the flower stamens, twist each piece of fringe as shown, leaving the tip rounded. One the second, non-fringed centerpiece, twist the center of the crepe strip once.
Step 2: Fold the twisted flower center in half and glue around the floral wire, then glue the twisted stamen piece around the base. Color the rounded tips of the centerpieces with a yellow marker.
DECORATING THE PETALS
Step 3: Use a pink marker to color the petals and let dry. Add another layer of color to the tip of the petals to create a gradient effect.
Step 5: Fold the petal in half, slightly off center. Fold the wider side again to create a seam in the petal (see photo tutorial below). Add a tiny amount of glue to either end to secure.
Step 6: Gently curl the petals with the edge of scissors. Stretch the petals on either side of the crease.
ACCOMPLISH THE TULIP
Step 7: Glue 3 petals evenly around the center of the flower, then glue the last three between.
Step 8: Wrap the base of the flower and floral wire with floral tape, attaching the leaves to the stem near the bottom with a dot of glue and more tape.
