On the heels of Valentine's Day, we just happened to be at Kaleidoscope, a local kids' craft haven. There are several craft centers. The blacklight station tends to be one of my favorites, but this year, we stumbled on a fun craft idea: the paper flower Valentine. The paper flower craft is easy to make.

Making the Paper Flower Valentine

 

1. Fold the half-piece of tissue in half, lengthwise and roll at a slight angle to create the flower top.

 

 

2. Roll the construction paper into a small tube and connect with tape. Insert the flower top into the stem. Secure with tape and cover joint with a little bit of the ribbon.

 

 

3. Secure a bow around and curl the ends (if you used curling ribbon) to complete your Valentine paper flower craft.
