Every once in a while during the cold days of winter, the sun peeks through the clouds and ever so gently glides over every surface, magnifying the beauty of winter.
While you can purchase fresh flowers year round, doing so on a regular basis can be pricey. So I decided to make some pretty blooms that will last a lot longer.
Directions:
1. Cut crepe into petal shapes
2. Turn bowl upside down and place crepe petal on top as shown
3. Spray paper with water – crepe will curl around bowl naturally
4. Gently shape crepe paper around bowl
5. Apply desired paint colour – you will notice the color will start to run down the petal; continue to apply desired paint colour gradually lighter
6. Place bowl in microwave and set time for 30 seconds – this should be sufficient time to dry the paper, but if not, reheat for another 5 seconds
7. Gently peel petal off bowl – your petal will have a beautiful concave shape
8. Remove petals from old artificial tulip to reveal the plastic core
9. Scrunch some previously painted crepe paper and glue to centre of the plastic core
10. Glue petals one at a time around core
11. Shape petals and finish by wrapping some floral tape around stem
note: if you do not have a stem and would like to use floral wire, simply form ball shape with some pre-painted crepe paper and attach to wire with some floral tape and follow steps 1-10 above.
This is a wonderful tutorial and the flowers you make are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Thank you for sharing your tutorial! did you use heavy weight florist crepe paper ? or the light weight kind?
So beautiful!!!!!!!

Love these!! I just ordered my crepe paper and am ready to make. How many petals do I need to make for one flower?
Thank you!
Lucy! I am speechless. These flowers are all stunningly beautiful ~ and you are one talented lady!
I can only hope that when I attempt to make these for the upcoming Easter weekend, my crepe blossoms will be even half as gorgeous as yours! I’ve never seen any “faux” florals that look as real as these…they are quite amazing.
But above all, I’m so very grateful for your generosity in sharing your expertise: thank you for wonderful supply lists and great pictorial instructions!

I want to thank you for sharing your creative and stunning paper flowers. I am always trying to learn new crafts and creative ways to reuse everyday items. Your tutorial was wonderful and fun. Thank You so much
These are all stunning! My mother will be thrilled to get this tutorial, as she is starting to make them again at 81, and everything has changed so much since she made them at 30 and dipped them in paraffin to preserve them. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing how you made these exquisite flowers – hoping to have a go at making them when my friends come round to craft.
When you cut your petals which way we’re the ripples going? Top to bottom or side to side? I am trying to make these for my wedding in May. They are absolutely gorgeous!!

Where did you find your crepe paper? I thought you were making the petals from “rolls” of crepe paper, but are you using bigger sheets?
