PAPER CRAFT

Everyone is familier with papers. We are seeing it in our day today life. Paper is a very good and less expensive material for crafting. Some of my craft work using paper is sharing with you..

SIMPLE PAPER FLOWER

This is a simple paper flower. Paper which I have used for this is the A4 sheet.
                                                                                     

FLOWER 1



Flower 1:

Materials required:     A4 sheets, scissors, glue, wires, green flower tape.

v  Take a sheet of A4 paper and cut into small    squares of 5cm.

v  Take a strip and fold it twice that it become quarter of its size and then fold at             the corner.

v  Now it looks like a triangle shape. Cut the edges like a petal.

v  While opening you can get a layer of flower.        Make one more layer like this.

v  Take a wire of desired length and make a hook at one end

v  Insert the wire into the centre of one layer and fix the next layer over it using   glue.

v  Take flower tape and wrap around the wire tightly.

v  Is it SIMPLE......? You can also paint the edges of the petals with color pen.
