Fully involved in the issue of recycling and crafts to do with children, today I bring you a tutorial where you see step by step how to make a flower to decorate gifts.
This craft is very simple and you can do it with your child. In the photo they have used an orange paper but you can do it with several papers and form a flower of many colors, this according to your taste or that of your son.
Necessary material
- Pinocchio paper of one or several colors
- Scissors
- Wooden sticks
- Paper glue
Although in the photo you can see the step by step perfectly, I explain it to you so that you are clear:
- First you take pinocchio paper and fold it as a booklet to have several sheets one on top of the other.
- We draw a circle and cut it with the help of scissors.
- We will have several circumferences (they will be the petals of the flower). We take them by a tip and make them a small wrinkle so that they have a petal shape and are no longer round.
- Cut some strips of pinocchio paper about 8 cm long and 1 cm wide, making a few cuts across the width and glue them to a wooden stick and glue it with glue.
- We open the flower for the little cuts we have made (we already have the cocoon).
- Now we glue the petals under the bud, side by side with a small overlap.
- With the help of the fingers we can fold the pieces of paper to give a more real air to the flower.
- Remember that nature is not perfect and that flower petals tend to be odd.
