A Bouquet of Flowers For Mom

With a few sheets of adhesive craft foam, a pair of scissors, some craft pipe cleaners and decorative paint,  you can create a special bouquet of flowers that Mom can keep forever.

Supplies:

  • At least 10 sheets of adhesive craft foam in various colors
  • Craft paint or puffy paints in various colors
  • Scissors
  • Colored pipe cleaners (available at craft stores)
  • A styrofoam block in which to place the flowers.

Mothers DayStep One: Cutting out the flowers

Get creative together cutting out flowers in different shapes ... tulips, roses, daisies. Cut enough to fill your bouquet, and don't forget the leaves for the stems. 

Mothers DayStep Two: Decorate the flowers

Use paint, pieces of foam and anything else that catches your eye to decorate the shapes you have cut out. You can even use letters to spell out words such as "I Love Mom."

Mothers DayStep Three: Put the flowers together

Using the adhesive backing stick the decorated flowers and leaves to the decorative pipe cleaners. Use different colors, and think about how the flowers will look once they are arranged.

Mothers DayStep Four: Putting it all together

Push the flowers by the bottom of the "stem" into the styrofoam block to create your bouquet.
