Tissue Paper Swirled Egg Carton Flowers

Make some pretty egg carton flowers to put on a Spring or Mother’s Day card! You could make a whole bouquet of different colored flowers if you want. Great craft for the kids to make :)

Materials Needed:

• Egg carton
• Tissue paper
• Scissors / Glue
• Glitter (optional)
• Pencil/Pen
• Green paper

Start by cutting out individual “cups” of an egg carton. Trim off any excess to make it smooth around the edges. Pick your favorite paint color and decorate it. While the egg cartons are drying, cut a strip of tissue paper out. Fold it three times so it’s skinnier. Then take a sharpie and bend the piece of tissue paper around it. Make sure the starting point is more to the right so you get a pretty middle to the flower. Put drops of glue on the inside of the cup and stick the rolled piece of tissue paper inside. Sprinkle with glitter or whatever else you want! Add a stem or leaves with some green paper and you’re done!
