What you’ll need:

- Felt pens
- Droppers
- Paint
- Paper straws
- Scissors
- Double sided tape or glue
- Masking tape
Step 1
Apply colour to your cotton pads by using either diluted paint, paint markers or felt tip pens. Then leave to dry completely.
Step 2
Once dried, trace around your cotton pad onto card. Cut the card and stick both together with double-sided tape or glue.
Step 3
Repeat for all three cotton pads, then fold each one in half. Now stick all three cotton pads together to form a 3D semi-circle.
Step 4
Cut a flower shape to fit under your cotton pads.
Step 5
Stick your straw to the flower with tape and then stick your cotton pads on top with glue or tape.
Step 6
Tuck in the top of a pipe cleaner and wind it down the straw. Then tuck it into the bottom of the straw.
Step 7
Cut and fold petals from the card and stick them along the straw.
Step 8
Add a bow and a little message.
Step 9
Next, add additional petals to your flower head.
