tissue paper flowers

[sammi]

Does anyone have any ideas or websites that would help making tissue paper flowers! Have done them before but my mind has gone totally blank and can't remember. Want to do them for Valentines day.

Children cut or tear circles of different coloured tissue paper... lay them 2 or 3 on top of each other... scrunch from the middle of the circle and tape to a lolly stick...

May not look perfect, but it's made by them. Even my 2.4 year old made some nice ones for his mum the other day

take a section of tissue paper approx 10 x 8 (several layers), concertina fold (lengthways), take a pipe cleaner and secure in the centre of tissue, fold both ends up towards each other and start to fan/fluff out the tissue.
Depending on the length of pipe cleaner fold upwards to make a stem!

We done these the other day and even the 3 year olds can do them, they loved mixing up the colours

We make these Vik with toilet tissue, it is just the right size .
