السلام عليكم

Masha Allaah, I found out some new crafts. I haven't tried them out yet, but next week Insha Allaah I will.  

MATERIALS

1. 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   

   • Tissue paper

   • 24-gauge white cloth-covered floral wire

   • Scissors
         
2. Stack eight 20-by-30-inch sheets of tissue. Make 1 1/2-inchwide accordion folds, creasing with each fold.
3. Fold an 18-inch piece of floral wire in half, and slip over center of folded tissue; twist. With scissors, trim ends of tissue into rounded or pointy shapes.
4. Separate layers, pulling away from center one at a time.
5. Tie a length of mono filament to floral wire for hanging.
6. Finished!

Second one!

• 10 Sheets of 8.5″ x 11″ papers per flower, 4 layers on each flower. The biggest layer took 4 sheets, the next layer took 3, then 2 and then the center took 1 sheets.
• Scissors
• Pen
• Low Temp Glue Gun
• Paper Trimmer
• Cardboard

1. Cut a 6.5″ circle out of cardboard.  Use a bowl and pen to trace a circle on the card stock and then cut it out with scissors.

2. Use your paper trimmer to cut your colorful paper into rectangles. Cut all pieces of paper into 4.25″ x 5.5″, which is basically an 8.5×11 into fourths.

3. Then roll your pieces of paper into cone shape with a point in the center of one end and use a small dot of glue to hold in place.

 4. Glue the first layer of cones all the way around the edge of the cardboard circle. The next layer  glue the cones around a little inside of the outer layer, without cutting or trimming them. For the third layer, trim off about 2-3″ off the cone before gluing them on. And then for the center, cut off the tips of the cones and glue them into the center of the flower.

Third one!

Finished!
