Flower Crown

Make a pretty flowery crown from a paper plate and paper flowers. These are fun to make for Spring or Easter.
Supplies:
  • A paper plate
  • Colored construction paper or tissue paper
  • Paint, markers, or crayons
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Optional - glitter, crepe paper or other ribbons

Cut a slit through the center of the paper plate, leaving about an inch at the edges of the plate. Cut three more slits.
Bend the triangles formed by the cuts upwards, forming leaf-like shapes.Paint the crown light green (or use markers or crayons to color it). Let the paint dry.
Cut out some construction paper or tissue paper flowers for your hat. Any shapes will do - let your imagination run wild and invent your own flowers.
Glue flowers to the crown.
Optional: Decorate it with glitter and/or staple two long ribbons of crepe paper to your beautiful hat.

Variation: Instead of flowers, make paper eggs, decorate them, and put them on your hat.
