Each completed flower will use five coffee fiters: One of the darkest color (for the center of the flower), two of the mid-range color, and two of the lightest color (for the outer petals). Fold and cut as shown above. You will also want to cut a tiny bit off of the bottom folded tip to create a small hole in the center of the coffee filter (this is where you will insert your floral wire or skewer).

Itts lioke you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something.
I think that you could do with a few ppics to drive the message home a little bit,
but instead of that, this is magnificent blog.
A great read. I’ll certainly be back.

Wow! Great tutorial. I love the way you dyed them in batches. Adding the vinegar was brilliant ~ like, why didn’t I ever think of that? I also like the way you cut the different layers, it makes them even more realistic!

These flowers are really nice. I’ve made tissue paper flowers before, but I’m going to try the coffee filter flowers for my daughter’s party.

Those are great. I’ve never made paper flowers either, but I like the way you made them. You should enter them in my Thrifty Thursday Challenge.
