Many times we wrap gifts, only to find that our packaging boxes are so bland that our friends may ignore the small gifts we carefully prepared due to the numerous gifts. What to do at this time! Of course, it is a good decoration for the gift box. Maybe such a small decoration can bring life to the gift box. Today’s little tutorial is to use crepe paper to make paper flowers. It’s very easy to make. Even if you don’t have crepe paper, you can just get half of the colored paper towels. All in all, it will definitely bring more attention to your little gift! Best of all, shes really not difficult to make!

1. First use scissors to cut round crepe paper, a total of 12 pieces are needed. The size can be determined according to your own gift, but it is best not to be too big, otherwise it will lose a lot of sophistication. Fortunately, many gifts themselves are not big.

4. Let’s borrow some skills in paper quilling here. Cut the upper part of the long crepe paper strip into a tassel shape. You don’t need to cut it thin like the previous paper quilling tutorial. A slightly thicker one will look better. Then use a toothpick to roll up the strip and seal it with glue.
