​Wreath with Poppies

You'll need:

Tissue paper;

Scissors;

Pipe cleaners (black or green);

Wreath;

Hole puncher, optional.

Instructions

First, assemble your materials and cut your tissue paper circles. Make large red circles for the poppies and smaller black circles for the interior (carpel) area of the poppy.

Using the pipe cleaner or your hole punch, poke a hole through the center of several layers of the poppy circles. 4-5 layers give the poppies a nice, full look. Repeat with 2 small black circles.

Poke the pipe cleaner through the poppy layers and then bend it down to secure in place. You may want to add a dab of glue at this point.

Scrunch up the poppies to give them a bit more dimension.

Wind the pipe cleaner into the wreath to secure it.

Repeat with remaining poppies until you have filled your poppy wreath to your preference.
