Stuffed Flower Craft

By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Instructions to make a stuffed flower decoration out of newspaper.

Materials Needed:

  • Newspaper
  • Paint
  • Stapler
  • Yarn or String

Instructions:
Cut two large, identical flower shapes out of newspaper. Paint the opposites sides of each piece of paper as desired; let dry. Lay both painted pieces together so the unpainted sides are touching. Staple around the edges, but leave an opening in the top so you can stuff your flower. Wad up small pieces of newspaper and stuff your flower. Staple the opening shut. Staple on a small yarn hoop to use for hanging.
