Materials

• Tulle
• Sticks
• Cord/ twine
• Glue gun/glue
• Scissors

Directions

• Cut strips of your tulle and fold them half.

• Put a small line of glue on one end of your stick.  Attach one end of the folded strip of tulle to the glue and then wrap it around the branch, scrunching as you go and adding more glue as needed.  (Your folded side forming the top portion of your flower.)

• To polish off the portion where the tulle connected to the branch we wrapped it with a bit of cord, gluing it down.

• Pop your flowers into a vase, add them to the top of a present etc.

Purpose

• Re-imaging items

Safety Notes
