Ingredients
- Coffee filters (about five)
- Washable markers
- Scissors
- Pipe cleaners (or green floral wire)
- Small beads or buttons (optional, for added decoration)
- A cup of water (for gentle misting)
- Light spray starch (optional, for firmer petals)
Instructions
- Start by taking a coffee filter and laying it flat on a clean surface.
- Begin coloring the filter with markers, using a variety of colors to create patterns.
- Once finished, lightly mist the filter with water to help colors blend.
- Gather the coffee filter from its edges and pinch it together in the center, forming a blossom.
- Take the pipe cleaner and twist it around the pinched center to secure the flower.
- To add embellishments, glue small beads or buttons to the center if desired.
- If you want the petals to hold their shape, lightly spray with starch and let it dry.
- Repeat these steps with more filters to create a bouquet.
