Paper Flower Tutorial Part 1 (Tissue Paper Flowers)

Hi Guys, I had this tutorial on here a long time ago and somehow it along with the youtube video were accidentally deleted when I updated my blogger address. I'm doing the paper flower tutorial in 3 parts. Part 1 for how to make a tissue paper flower is below. To make tissue paper flowers you need: Tissue paper (any color)-- I made these for a friends wedding and I use light pink and cream color. Floral Wire (I bought the long ones from The Hobby Lobby and cut them in half) $2.99 for like 40 of them. Steps: 1. Cut a square of tissue paper. You need at least 6 pieces of tissue paper so I usually just cut 1 square chunk out of the tissue paper. The larger your square, the larger your flower will be. 2. Fold your square of tissue paper accordion style. 3. Fold your accordion in half and in the middle point cut two tiny slits on both sides 4. Wrap the floral wire around the area you just made a slit. 5. Cut the edge of the tissue paper in the shape you want (Round, pointy etc) 6. Fan the flower out 7. Pull up the individual layers of tissue paper Yep it's really that simple :) You can make the flowers pointy or round, and I've even done variations where I used different colors of tissue paper within each flower (switch up the colors in between layers of tissue paper before you fold it). Have fun!
