April showers bring May flowers…unless you live in the suburbs of Chicago where I do, then you are still anxiously awaiting the arrival of those May flowers! It is the last full week of May and I am just now seeing that my peonies get ready to bloom (any day now!) and a few tulips and daffodils are starting to show their colors. The lilies are growing inches taller every day and the morning glories are waiting for the mornings to become sunnier and warmer before they start making their daily appearance.
While waiting on Mother Nature to present her colors, I have been inspired to start creating flowers of my own using 2 of my favorite inexpensive supplies: tissue paper and crepe paper. Both of these items can easily be found at your local dollar store or big box store and are both available in every color possible. Instead of heading to the craft supply section, head to the party aisle for what you will need to create these fun and colorful blooms. These 20 tutorials will show you how to create 20 different flowers. From the smallest of blooms to more elaborate flowers and stems, you will be creating DIY tissue paper flowers in no time! Put them in a vase or basket or scroll down for some fun ideas on how to use your blooms for other DIY projects.
