Flowers Made Out Of Cupcake Liners!

How To Make Flowers From Cupcake Liners!

Have you ever seen something crafted that was made with everyday items, so simple yet so pretty?! Well that is what I feel about today’s project! It is such a fun way to use cupcake liners by making them into flowers. I joined Ashley from Modern Glam Home and Janine from The Happy Happy Nester to showcase some spring paper crafts with our friends.

You are going to see what I mean when I say that this project was so easy. In fact it makes me think it would be a great classroom craft as well! Anyhow, here are the things you will need to put these together…

  • Cupcake liners (of different sizes and colors)
  • Scissors
  • Floral tape or you can use a glue to adhere the layers even more (I used a glue gun).
  • Pencil

Here is how I assembled these sweet flowers…

To start, you will take about 6 large cupcake liners and fold them in half all together. Then like you would with a paper snowflake, begin cutting petal shapes. I made about five total petals when it was folded in half like this… Open them up for later.

Then I took another few cupcake liners and again, folded them in half. This time, I cut about 4 larger petals and open them up for layering later. I wanted there to be some variation…

Next, you will fold a couple yellow liners (any color would be fine) to make the center of your flower. Instead of petals, you will be cutting and making lots of strips across the liner like so…

Take the center and open it. You will want to twist the bottom center so it looks like this below.

Then you will assemble the whole flower by putting the yellow center into the middle of the other layers. For reference, I put the few larger petaled liners on the outside and the 6 smaller petaled liners next with the yellow being the last layer.

You will twist and roll the center of the bottom of the liners and the petals will come together as seen here…

If you are having trouble managing all the layers, you can use a pencil to create the shape from the inside center.

To finish things off you can wrap the outside pinched center with floral tape or I later chose to glue the layers so they would be even more secure.

To make things a bit more realistic, I used a pencil to roll the petals toward the center and give them a bit more shape.

There are so many things you could do with this craft!

I threw one into a bouquet just to see how it would look and it looked pretty good! You could also add faux stems to these and fill a vase.

Or you could use them to adorn a gift, headband, cake… The list goes on!

I played around with other shapes and made this pink rose or carnation looking one by using the shape of bigger petals. I rolled a little ball into the center too.

I ran out of time, but I think there are so many styles of flowers to make with these liners!

I will have to play around again with these real soon…

Until then, I hope you let me know if you try these out!

We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (sh We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (shared it in stories today) and I can’t tell you enough how nice it is to hear that pretty little sound 🎵 ... I love wind chimes, chirping birds and dripping fountains... So you can imagine how fun it has been to be inside with the windows open and hearing all if those noises at once 💕. This could be a project that would be easily done with inexpensive pieces and makes a big impact for your outdoor space. Speaking of outdoor spaces, I shared ours all ready for summer up on the blog along with my friends. Come check it out if you need some easy ideas!
One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 Bu One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 But in stories I am sharing some tips and tricks for storage in a small bathroom like ours! I am talking about how we use drawers, but try to keep things pretty/functional at the same time... Come check it out and see how we think outside the box when it comes to this space! One of my new favorite tips comes from these 100% Cotton Turkish towels we were gifted from @theloomia! Not only are they pretty, they are large, but save space at the same time... You’ll have to go see what I mean in my stories, see you there! And @theloomia is offering 15% off when you use the code - Zevyjoy15 💕
I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and adding some fun wall treatments/trim... I only wish real size home DIY’s were as simple as popsicle sticks and wood glue 😂! Come see what I mean on stories... But I did grab some fresh flowers for the yard and shared how I simply decorate for this favorite season of mine, summer ☀️ . It’s all up on the blog and I am joining my friends too so come say hello 💕
I listened to your votes in stories and this old t I listened to your votes in stories and this old thrifted mirror got a few coats of “Play it Cool” (the color I had on hand from our kitchen cabinets 😉). And this hallway is finally done 🎉! Here is a little before and after... The board and batten design is from @anitayokota after I saw how she used it in her pretty bedroom I knew this would put a fun modern spin in the hallway. Some fresh paint, an affordable vintage rug and updated lighting completed this long dark space. Covering popcorn ceilings will come next, but I hope this shows how a little trim and paint go a long way when working on spaces! 🌿
This past week was a time to listen and prayerfully learn. My eyes were opened and my heart convicted to speak up and to do better... While I begin to share my content here, I will strive to move forward for change and find ways to support black lives here and at home.
Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawils Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawilson.msrd for more about this movement. My feed will be muted here as I listen and learn. I will be in stories sharing resources that support black lives. #amplifymelanatedvoices
Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out dressed sorta matching this morning 😂 This girl knows what she likes and asked to have her pink room transformed with blue... And you know when you give a mouse a cookie... 🍪 (Clearly I am the mouse 🐭 in this story 🤣) We finished up the new bead-board wall (I have trim touch up to do still) and then we are finishing spraying her little desk this afternoon. A couple vintage pieces are on the way, but otherwise I have been shopping the house for this little makeover. It’s all still in progress, but getting closer! And you all... This room is small!! So I am going to share how we tackle storage in this space so stay tuned in stories... 💕
Ever since I was little I can remember my dad tell Ever since I was little I can remember my dad telling me (who is a contractor/designer) the importance of using 3’s 💕. Now as I have made our own home, I almost always use the rule of 3’s whenever I am decorating. That goes for coffee tables, nightstands and more... I’m talking all about it and showing you some examples in stories today! And even more fun is that @boutiquerugs is offering 60% off with the code - ZEVYJOY60 ! This is the new rug we added from their collection to our bedroom here! So enjoy and have fun looking around at all their pretty selections... #boutiquerugspartner
You all know how I feel about pillows by now, don’t you?! 😂 Well in case you don’t... I think they are the best! They pull a space together affordably and make things cozy of course! You can trade them out or just keep adding to them (which is what I like to do 😉). And let’s face it, you can never have too many... Am I right? They are your artistic canvas in home decor and in my opinion there aren’t many rules to follow in the fun of mixing and matching them either! 🌿
Best of all, I’ve teamed up with 7 talented accounts to share how we used pillows to style our spaces. Head on over and check out what they’ve done... @thegingerhome
