Green bendable Straws
Colorful Paper
Scissors
Glue Stick
Vase (optional)
Hole Punch

Supplies

Print the flower patterns on colorful coordinating papers. Cut out. If you opt to print on white paper and have the kids color the flowers, have them color them before they cut them out.
Use hole punch to put holes in small flowers. You will need to use a pen to create the hole in the larger flower because the hole punch won’t reach.
Angle the straw slightly at the bend and slip the large flower up to the bend. Coat the back of the smaller flower with the glue stick and slip on the straw up to the large flower and press together.

It’s as easy as that! Beautiful bouquets for any occasion.
