Kleenex Lily – Flower Craft

Kleenex Lily Flower Craft - BlossomsAndPosies.com

I learned how to make kleenex lilies from the teacher at my art class when I was six years old. There are lots of different variations you can make. You don’t have to use a glitter pipe cleaner like I did, it’s just what we had. Regular green pipe cleaners will work as well. Also, you can make them with more layers of kleenex, with less or no pollen, or you can make the tips of the pollen different by cutting little slits in the paper or coloring the edges with a marker. There are hundreds of different variations you can use on this craft! We only show one of them. I hope you have fun!  – Abbie
