Grab all of your petal pipe cleaners and one green one. Bend in half to make “V” shapes.
Take the green pipe cleaner and face it downwards.
Add the petal pipe cleaners and hook them to the green to make an “X” shape.
After adding all the petal pipe cleaners to the “X” shape, twist the green one several times.
The tails should face downward and to the side, respectively.
Fan out all of your petal tails so they look like spokes on a wheel.
Curl each one individually toward the center point of the stem.
Continue to roll petals inward toward the center. Adjust as you go, or wait until all petals are created.
Repeat until you come to your last petals. Start adjusting to fit the last few into the space.
Take the stem tail to the side and wrap it at the base directly behind the flower.
As the tail shortens, work it down the stem to help everything stay in place. Give it a pinch at the very end.
Reshape or organize petals if you haven’t already done so.
Time to make the leaf or leaves–roll them to resemble paper clip size.
Before rolling the leaf entirely, leave a tail.
Use the tail of the leaf and attach it anywhere on the stem.
And then you’ll have your adorable pipe cleaner flowers!
