MIDWAY, FL- Today in our Pinterest Party, the Sunrise Crew made paper flowers courtesy of Fuzzy Pineapple.

Nefi Denard shows how with these materials:

Materials

Cardstock paper (Any Color)

Scissors

Hot Glue Gun and Hot Glue

Pencil + Regular Paper to make a pattern (optional)

Steps

1. Assemble materials

2. Take 6-8 sheets of paper and set aside.

3. Take 3 sheets and cut paper in half. Set aside.

4. Take 3 more sheets and cut paper in half. Take one half of the cut paper (3 sheets and cut in half again.) Set aside

5. With the remaining half (3 sheets, cut in half and then cut in half again) Set aside.

6. Cut out flower petal shapes on each sheet of paper.

7. Make a slit at the bottom of each flower and curl the petals back together.

8. Put a small dab of glue on one side the slit and place the other side of the slit on the glue dot so that it forms a small upside down "V" at the bottom. It should look like a shallow spoon. Do this to every flower.

9. Cut out a circle and glue the petals to the circle in a spiral position, one petal on the next or 3 petals on each side and 3 more on top.

10. Continue adding petals, each row with a smaller petal.

11. Cut a long strip of paper (11 x 2 in) and fold in half. Make small cuts on the fold but do not cut all the way down.

12. Glue the end sides of the cut strip and roll, glueing as you roll. Let cool.

13. Pull out the slits and attach the base of the roll to the center of the flower. Done! Attach to a wall with glue dots or double sided tape.
