Creating paper flowers is a fun and rewarding project. But paper flowers require a lot of time and investment. It is important to use high-quality, heavy crepe paper. Also, the flowers should be kept away from rooms with large humidity swings.
You can make flowers in a variety of colors and styles. Italian crepe paper is more expensive, but it is sturdy and not prone to flopping. Also, it is easy to curl and bend. Just make sure you choose the correct grain of the paper.
You can also make crepe paper flowers that look like dandelion flowers. You can create these by cutting your petals with the grain running vertically. This will allow the flower to open up, forming ridges in the petals.
In addition, crepe paper flowers can be made to look like tulip petals. You can also print out tulip petal templates and place them on folded crepe paper. You can also crimp your petals to make them look more realistic.
In addition, you can make large, ruffled crepe paper flowers or use them as backdrops. For larger flowers, you will need good-quality, heavy crepe paper. You can also use pan pastels or ink daubers to add color to your petals.
Once you have your petals shaped, you will need to use floral wire to attach them to your flower. You will need at least six inches of wire. You can also use floral tape to secure the petals in place.
