A tissue paper flower

We're making tissue paper flowers in my after school art class today.  I hope they're not too fiddley for the younger children.  I got the idea from http://www.lollychops.com/ where she gives a tutorial.  I added some snipped then twisted green tissue to the centre which doubles as a stem.  Then wired and florist taped the stem so it can be positioned easily.
Gave my two last polymer clay modelling classes this week for term three.  As much as I love it, I'm looking forward to the school holidays!  Above are a few things the children have been creating in clay class...

  2. Beautiful, clear pictures and the paper project flower looks great. I don't think the children will find it too tricky as I think they will really just want to have a go at making the lovely looking flower. Looking forward to hearing how they go with this. Simone
