Tissue Paper Flowers

1. Take a piece of tissue paper, and cut eight squares that are 5 inches across by 5 inches tall.

2. Stack the squares on top of each other and "fan fold" the stack as shown below.

3. Wrap the end of a green pipe cleaner tightly around the center of the folded tissue paper.

4. Open up the fan of tissue paper on each side of the pipe cleaner, and separate each sheet of tissue from the stack.

5. Cut out leaves from construction paper and glue them to the pipe cleaner. Now you have a beautiful flower to give to a friend!
