Flowers for Mother's Day

I remember art class vaguely from grammar school. Cute little crafty projects! I've been trying to reach down deep in my memory for some of these projects to do with Ash lately. With a little help from Pinterest, voila! 

I love flowers, but they don't last long & can get rather expensive so paper flowers are a great gift especially for mothers day when there's grandmas, aunts, neighbors, etc. 

You need tissue paper in the colors you like, scissors, & pipe cleaners. 

Cut a bunch of 5x7 rectangles of tissue paper in the colors you like. Stack them up & fold accordion style. You can cut half moons at the ends or cut a triangle to make a point on each end. 

Loop a pipe cleaner around the middle & twist off the end on the "stem". Fan out the tissue paper gently separating each piece of tissue paper. You can lightly spray with perfume if you'd like. 

Hope you all have as much fun as we did!
