Plastic Spoon Flower Craft
How to make plastic spoon flowers for a springtime craft with the kids.
Yield: 1 flower
Cost: $5
Equipment
- A low temp. glue gun and glue sticks or an alternative to the glue gun, like...Fabri-Tac
Materials
- 3 plastic spoons - I used purple for one flower and yellow spoons for another
- floral tape
- green pipe cleaner cut into thirds
- yellow pipe cleaner cut into halves
- 1 clear 9oz. cup
- crinkle cut brown paper shavings
Instructions
- Face all three spoons inward toward each other
- Start wrapping the middle with floral tape and go all the way down (this first part is just to get a good hold with the floral tape, so the spoons are held together)
- Wrap the spoons again, going all the way up to the end of the handle
- Now insert your green pipe cleaner into some spaces on the tape
- Insert the yellow pipe cleaner down the center of the spoons so some of the yellow is sticking out of the top
- Glue the flowers to the bottom of the inside of your plastic cup
- Add paper filler around the flower
