Preparation
- Choose your preferred colors of construction paper.
- Using a pencil, draw tulip petal shapes. You’ll need 3-5 petals for each flower.

Assembly
- If you want to add a decorative touch, draw or color a small circle to represent the flower's center.
- Glue the center onto the base of the petals you just cut.
- Gather your petals and arrange them around the flower center.
- Use glue to attach each petal to the center, slightly overlapping them for a fuller look.
- Hold each petal in place for a moment to ensure they stick well.
Stem Construction
- Take a pipe cleaner or a wooden stick and attach it to the bottom of the flower using glue.
- If using a pipe cleaner, you can bend it to create a more natural stem shape.

- Once everything is dry, find a lovely spot to display your tulip crafts.
- You can also create a bouquet by making multiple flowers and tying them together!
Notes
Customize your tulips with patterned paper for a unique look. Swap out glue for double-sided tape for quicker assembly. Experiment with sizes; create mini tulips using smaller paper pieces. Add some glitter or stickers to the petals for added flair.
