  Step 1

  Prep:

  I used origami size paper with different colors and patterns. I cut the paper into strips about 1/4 to 1/2 inch wide.

  **Using a paper cutter is best because you can cut several at once and you get even cuts.

  I also used a 1 inch circle punch. You could also use other shape punches or sizes.

• 

  Step 2

  Making Petals:

  Take one strip of paper and place glue on both ends.

• 

  Step 3

  Making Petals:

  Then bend the strip into a circle.

• 

  Step 4

  Making Petals:

  The other glued end should now be inside the circle.

  Now squeeze the circle to create a figure 8.

• 

  Step 5

  Making Petals:

  Repeat step 4, four more times.

• 

  Step 6

  Making the Flower:

  Glue each petal together in the middle. Layer in such a way that you can see each side of the petals.

• 

  Step 7

  Making the Flower:

  Now your flower should look similar to the picture. Once you have that, glue a circle (or other punch out shape) in the middle to finish the illusion of a flower.

  **You could also use buttons, pompoms or stickers for the middle.

  Step 8

  Finished Product:

  Now you can take these flowers and stick them on anything from cards and gifts to straws and sticks, whatever your heart desires!!
