How to Make Narcissus Flowers With Tissue Paper

Make a narcissus flower out of colored tissue paper.

If you have a little extra colored tissue paper from your last gift-wrapping project, then consider making a narcissus flower out of the scraps. You can use any colored tissue paper to make your flower, but using white, yellow and green keeps with the authentic colors of the narcissus flower.

Things You'll Need

• Hot glue gun
• Hot glue sticks
• Tissue paper (white, yellow, green)
• 2 baking cups
• Pencil
• Scissors
• Straw
• White craft glue

Instructions

1. Insert a glue stick into the hot glue gun, and plug the gun into a power outlet. Allow the glue to warm up.

2. Spread out your yellow sheet of tissue paper.

3. Flatten a cupcake baking cup, and place it on top of the yellow tissue paper. Trace the liner with the pencil. Cut out the circle. Repeat this step two times. Repeat twice on the white sheet of tissue paper. You need three yellow circles and two white circles.

4. Place the circles on top of one another in alternating colors. Pinch at the bottom, and glue into the center of the baking cup using a dot of hot glue.

5. Lay out the green sheet of tissue paper on your work surface. Line the vertical edge with a small amount of white craft glue. Place the straw in the glue, and roll the straw around the green tissue paper. Cut away the excess.

6. Attach the green stem to the back of the backing cup with a dot of hot glue.
