How to make a tissue paper flower. Okay, we’ve all seen the fan fold method of making tissue flowers, but here is another version!
SUPPLIES:
White craft glue
Glitter
Directions:
Cut the tissues into circles, all the same size. 4-6″ is perfect.
Layer in stacks of twelve.
Carefully fold over (do not crease) and use the hole punch at the bottom.
Insert the chenille stem and twist.
Fluff each layer by crumpling it towards the center.
Lightly touch the edges to white craft glue and sprinkle on the glitter!
