How to Make

  1. From a sheet of A4 white paper create concertina folds along the longest side of the paper. For concertina folding alternate the direction of the fold.
  2. Draw and cut out a small rectangle (2cm width 7cm length) from paper.
  3. Pinch the bottom of the fan together and glue the rectangle strip around the pinched area of the fan to create a bouquet shape.
  4. Slide the green pipe cleaners into the grooves of the fan-like shape
  5. For the flowers, begin to draw and cut out 5 circles from the coloured paper.
  6. Using a pencil draw a spiral shape onto each circle and then cut out the spiral shape using scissors.
  7. To create the 3D effect, begin by rolling the outside point of the spiral all the way to the centre of the shape. Repeat this step for all the flowers.
  8. Using glue, stick the 3D flowers into the grooves of the bouquet.
