To start, here is the list of the equipment you will need:

• Crepe paper : Choose the color of your choice to create flowers in various colors.
• Scissors : A sharp pair will be essential to cut the paper with precision.

• Tape : To fix the different parts of the flowers together.
• Floral rod: To give your bouquet height and facilitate the handling of flowers.

We will now see how to make a bouquet of paper flowers, step by step:

First, cut strips of crepe paper from the desired color to create the petals. The size and shape of the bands will depend on the type of flower you want to make. For a more realistic result, do not hesitate to vary the sizes, shapes and even the colors of the petals.

Then roll up each petal around a piece of wire to give it a rounded shape. Attach it with adhesive tape. Repeat this step until you have enough petals to form a complete flower.

The heart of the flower can be made using another color of crepe paper or remaining in the same tones as the petals. Cut a small strip of paper, crumple it lightly and fix it in the center of the circle formed by the petals, always using adhesive tape.

To finalize your paper flower, all you have to do is get it on a floral upper. Pass the stem through the circle formed by the petals and the heart of the flower, then fix everything with adhesive tape to maintain the flower in place.

To make your bouquet of paper flowers feel, here are some tips:

A bouquet composed of a single variety of flowers can be very elegant, but do not hesitate to mix different kinds of flowers and several colors for a more radiant result. You can also play on textures using different types of paper, such as cardboard paper or metallic paper.

To give even more volume and realism to your bouquet, remember to add paper plants such as leaves, branches or even grasses. They will bring a green and natural touch that will highlight your flowers.

Finally, do not hesitate to personalize your bouquet of paper flowers according to the event for which you realize it. For example, for a wedding, opt for soft and romantic colors such as pale pink, white or water green. For a birthday, prefer bright and festive shades such as red, yellow or electric blue.

By following these tips and letting your creativity speak, you will get a magnificent bouquet of paper flowers that will amaze your loved ones and sublimate your interior. So, to your scissors and give free rein to your imagination!
