DIY Crepe Paper Flower Craft

I haven’t posted anything in a while, so came back with a really cute flower craft project! Crepe paper is perfect for flower crafting and these crepe paper heliconia flowers are great to get your craft on! They were so easy to make and the pattern turned out so nicely, it worked like therapy for me! If you’re looking for an easy yet therapeutic craft project to try out any weekend, these crepe paper heliconia flowers can be a great project.

Step 1

Select a colourful crepe paper for this craft and cut out 12 to 15 teardrop-shaped pieces from the selected crepe paper. Try keeping the sizes of the teardrop-shaped pieces relatively the same.

Step 2

Take a teardrop crepe paper cutout and cut 1 cm slit along the middle bottom end of it.

Step 3

Cut out a strip (4 cm wide and 12 cm long) from a green coloured craft paper. Start to roll the strip diagonally from any open side to form a straw pattern. Apply glue at the end of the rolled paper to secure it

Take any one of the teardrop cutouts and apply a drop of glue on the bottom side (the curved side of the teardrops are the bottom sides).

Step 4

Wrap the glued side of the teardrop around any 1 open end of the green paper straw made in the previous step. The green straw will be the stem. 

Now take another teardrop cutout and apply glue on the bottom side of it.

Step 6

Now, take another teardrop cutout but this time attach it on the opposite side of the previous one.  Remember to attach every current teardrop cutout on the opposite side of the previously attached one, each time.
