Tissue paper flower bouquet

How to make it

1. 

   1

   Stack the paper

   Lay 6 sheets of tissue paper on top of each other. Cut the stack into rectangles about the size of a postcard.

   Fold like a fan

   Fold one short end over about 1 in. Flip the stack and fold again. Keep going back and forth until it looks like a paper fan.

   Twist on the stem

   Wrap a pipe cleaner around the middle of the folded strip. Twist it twice so it holds.

   Round the ends

   Trim both ends of the fan into a curve. Rounded ends make softer petals.

   Pull up the petals

   Lift one sheet at a time toward the middle, gently. It'll look flat at first. By the 3rd layer it starts to look like a flower.

   Fill the vase

   Make 5 to 8 flowers and set them in your jar. Bend the stems so the heads face different ways.
