Mother’s Day Hanging Floral Arrangement

Floral· Mother's Day· Paper Crafts

floral-mothers-day-craftMother’s Day is just around the corner. This is such an easy project that would be great to do with children! You could even make mini versions if you need a group children’s craft.

mother's day floral16 copySupplies needed to create your own Mother’s Day hanging floral arrangement:

  • Silhouette Cameo
  • This Cutting File
  • 12×12 Two-sided Scrapbook Paper
  • Glue Dots
  • Floral Water Pick
  • Satin Ribbon
  • Hole Punch
  • Washi Tape (optional)
  • Flowers

Step 1: Cut out this file with your Silhouette Cameo.

Step 3: Fold the right perforated edge, add several Glue Dots and firmly press the two sides of the pocket together.

Step 4: Fold the perforated top flap down, add Glue Dots and firmly press down.

Step 5: Now you have a pocket! Test it out and add Glue Dots where any flap is not firmly glued down.

Step 7: Thread ribbon or wire through the holes and tie knots to secure.

Step 8: This is where I realized that my pocket needed reinforcement on the side. Because the left side is perforated and will need to hold a bit of weight. So I added washi tape to that side.

Step 9: Gather your floral water picks. Add water and flowers. Stick them in your pouch (don’t push too far down or you will put pressure on the sides of your pocket!).

    We used to make a basket out of construction paper at school and fill it up with wilderflowers on the walk home or during recess. We would then hang it on the door knob, ring the doorbell, and run away, then we’d walk in the house a few minutes later to see what mom had to say about the surprise flowers. It’s a fond memory from 30 years ago…

    Perfect for tradition of leaving flowers on someone’s doorstep for May Day. If I only had a Cameo… 🙂
