Flowers are Blooming!

With Mother Nature throwing us all kinds of curveballs lately, we decided to bring Spring early by way of arts and crafts. Shay had wanted to do an artwork project with flowers, and that is when I remembered how much I loved tissue paper flowers. I did an example flower- one, to show her how to do them, and two, to jog my memory on how to do them. Here is what we did:
Select tissue paper.

We cut ours into 4 rectangles.

Layer the 4 pieces and fold like a paper fan.

Wrap a pipe cleaner around the middle.
Fluff.

And fluff.

And fluff!
She had to sniff it.

A beautiful bouquet!

She put them right on her dresser.

Such an easy and low cost activity brought such a smile to her face.
