What are some fun crafts I could do?
Hi! I love doing crafts like a little girl lol. I already know how to make friendship braclets. I know how to make those beaded animals (lizards is the most common). Do you know a craft that I can do to make little flowers? Like origami? Or anything else you can think of! I can’t draw, so dont even say it lol.
Thank you soo much! ![]()
Oh, for the flowers, not like flat ones. I was thinking about mkaking a bunch then putting them on some sort of stick and making a bunch. That would be pretty cool

I don’t know any thing to answer about the flowers, but have you tried cross stitching? I really like it and there are some easy one’s to start out with.
There are many ways to make 3D flowers – origami is amazing here is a beautiful rose http://www.bloom4ever.com/how-to-make-origami-rose.php. or this very simple spiral rose http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKBLPpAPp9c with dozens of links on other flower types.
A very pretty tissue paper rose http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDdxtuUt_5c&NR=1
This one is pretty neat – I would hope that you would substitute a little patience and a decent glue stick for the stapeler http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-make-3d-paper-flower-169524/

Here are ideas for both fabric and flower – just change out the colors and create all kinds of flowers

Create them out of wired ribbon. Or add them to your clothing as ribbon embroidery. Fabric flowers are neat, felt ones are fun and funky. Then there are the ones that you make of liquid film and wire – it dries into a transparent plastic. We used to buy silk / plastic flowers (think Jo-Ann or Michaels) and create wonderful arrangements, adding small soaps (wrapped in plastic – stuck on picks) for bathroom arrangements (they smelled really good) and were wonderful gifts for moms / grands / hostess gifts (ask your mom about those!).
Learn how to make them in photoshop as a 3D effect http://10steps.sg/tutorials/photoshop/create-a-3d-flowery-text-effect/ or just hunt beautiful pictures and download them to your printer, turning them into 3D puzzles or other 3D art!.
Lots of idea!
