- Colored paper (pink, yellow, green — or any colors you like!)
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- Wooden skewer or straw (for the stem)
- Optional: Markers or stickers for decoration
Instructions:
Print the Template:
Download and print the free PDF template on white cardstock or regular paper. Cut out all the shapes — the heart (which forms the petals), the circle (flower center), and the leaf.
Form the Flower:
Cut out a petal piece from colored paper. Fold it along the dotted lines so that it forms a heart shape when folded.
Add the Center:
Glue the yellow circle to the middle of the flower.
Attach the Stem:
Finally, glue the skewer or straw to the back of the flower.
Assemble the Stem:
Glue the green leaf onto the skewer or straw, positioning it about halfway down to mimic a real flower’s stem.
Magic Moment: Start by showing the craft as a heart on a stick. Then, gently unfold the petals — and voilà ! It transforms into a gorgeous flower.
Customization Ideas:
Personal Messages: Use the included decorative circles to write sweet notes like “Love You”, “Happy Mother’s Day”, or “Best Mom Ever”.
Color Variations: Mix and match colors for a rainbow effect or create an elegant two-tone flower.
Sparkle Touch: Add glitter or shiny stickers to make the flower even more magical.
Why This Craft Is Perfect:
Easy and fun for all ages — toddlers might need help cutting, but they’ll love assembling the flower.
Great for gifts — ideal for holidays, birthdays, or a ‘just because’ surprise.
Budget-friendly — made with simple materials you likely already have.
