What You Will Learn?

  • Learn how to make a crepe paper poppy! Using simple flower-making techniques, we'll use crepe paper to craft a flower inspired by icelandic poppies. Paper flowers are often crafted on flower wire to use in arrangements, but we’re going to create a flat-back flower. It’s a little easier for a first flower and having a flat back is useful for displaying on a wall, setting on a plate for a place setting, or — like the example in this class — adding a clothespin to clip onto things. .
