It’s easy to make flowers with this tool and the instructions are easy to follow. You first determine the flower size (I recommend XXS for this project) and cut paper according to the instructions.

This is what your strip of paper will look like once you finish the process. Well, this was the first flower I made, a medium, which was way too big for this project. So your strip of paper will have smaller petals.paper flower bridal bouquet03Step 4: Fold along the creased lines and adhere each petal to the previous petal. I used Glue Dots for this but any strong adhesive will work.paper flower bridal bouquet05Step 5: To make the petals seem more realistic, use the second pink tool to bend the petals outward a bit. Just slide the petal into the slit and gently roll the pink tool outwards.paper flower bridal bouquet06Step 6: Now you will open the stem kit to finish the flower. There are four steps to this process.

a. Place the stigma piece through the middle of the flower.

b. From underneath the flower, slide the sepal piece onto the screw-like button.

c. Then screw on a long green cover piece to secure the button.

d. Slip the flexible wire stem into the long green cover piece.

Add a little pizzazz to your bouquet with looped lace. You just fold a piece of lace or ribbon over and glue it to a stem.

Oh, I also ended up gluing some vintage buttons onto the paper flowers for special touch (it would be great to incorporate your ‘something old’ this way).paper flower bridal bouquet17That’s it! You have a one-of-a-kind-last-forever bridal bouquet!
