Paper Wisteria Plant
You'll need:
Text weight frosted paper — lilac, violet satin, fairway, and botanic;
20-gauge floral wire (3 pieces);
Art marker — light orange;
Yes! Paste;
Scissors;
Low-temperature hot glue gun;
Paintbrush;
1/16″ hole punch.
Instructions
Cut the petals, using your cutting machine or scissors.
Punch a hole in the middle of each petal. Then color a fan shape on one side of the lilac-colored petals.
Using the edge of your scissors, curl all of the petals in the same direction; curl the lilac-colored petals on the side that was not colored.
Using a small paintbrush, put a dab of Yes! Paste in the center of the lilac petals on the side that is colored. Glue the violet petal in the corresponding size to the lilac petal so they curl away from each other.
Place a small dot of hot glue on the end of the wire and slide a small violet petal facing down on top of the glue dot to hold it in place. Repeat this 6 times, spacing them about a 1/2″ apart.
Glue four small flowers onto the wire with violet petals facing down and spacing them about a 1/2″ apart.
Next, glue four more medium-sized flowers onto the wire, increasing the spacing to 3/4″ apart.
Glue the last four largest flowers onto the wire, spacing them 1″ apart.
Using the hot glue gun, glue a wire down the center stem of the leaves.
Use the edge of the scissors to score along the score marks and curl the leaves.
