Paper Flowers! So cute! So easy!

I found a tutorial for these cute paper flowers on Yahoo Shine. I thought they were so cute I wanted to try it myself. Their flowers only had five petals but I used six on mine to even out the alternating petals. If you know me, you know I like symmetry.

1. Fold a square piece of paper to form a triangle.
2. Fold the bottom two corners up to the top corner to create a square again.
3. Flatten the two corners you just folded upward.
4. Fold back the tips of the two parts you just flattened.
5. Fold the two corners you flattened in half.
6. Apply double sided tape to one of the corners you just folded in half.
7. Bring sides together without completely flattening.
8. Use a stick or dowel for the stem and embellish the center.

You give it a try!
