Ever wonder how to do paper flowers? It is pretty darned easy to make a flower. Simply follow the step by step directions for this handmade paper flower bouquet and you will have a wonderful flower bouquet to place in any vase or Mason jar! 


How to make the paper stems for the flowers:


• Cut strips of green construction paper 2 inches wide and 8 inches long (or the length of your paper).


• Cover one side of the paper in glue using a glue stick.


• Start from one corner and roll the paper stem together at an angle. This will make a flower stem.


• Use hot glue to hold the ends in place (it dries fast).


 How to make paper flower bluebonnets:


• Cut strips from the cardstock paper that are 2 inches wide and 8 inches long.


• Draw a line ¼ of an inch from one of the long sides of the paper.


• Cut ¼ inch snips horizontally along the line to make a fringe.


• Roll the strips of fringe with a pencil up to the line.


• Cover one side of the non-cut side of the paper fringe with glue from the glue stick.


• Use hot glue to glue one corner of the flower to the top of a stem.


• Roll the flower piece around the stem at an angle, covering the top of the stem with the flower paper.


• Use hot glue to hold the bottom end of the flower in place.
