This eco-friendly paper craft is easy to set up with craft sticks and recycled chair foam.

The scalloped edge on the flowers adds a dainty touch to the flower petals!

Supplies

Instructions

Paint a piece of chair foam for the base to hold the flowers

1. Cut a piece of foam to the desired size for the base. Use pinking shears if preferred to make a crinkled edge.

2. Paint the foam green. We combined blue and yellow paint to make green since we only had a neon green on hand and it didn't seem to suit this craft. Mixing paint colors is another learning opportunity for kids!
