Instructions for the Aster Flowers Papercraft
Step 1:
Select colored craft paper for the aster flowers (purple, pink, or white) and select yellow craft paper for the center part of the flower. We will need a strip of yellow paper and four pieces of purple paper for this craft.
Step 2:
Trace the flower patterns on the paper selected for the flower and trace the strip on the yellow paper. Cut out the traced patterns from the papers. Cut small and even fringes along the yellow strip.
Step 3:
Grab any one of the flower cutouts and create a crease along each petal (from the tip of the petal towards the center of the flower pattern). Create creases on the rest of the flower cutouts.
Step 4:
Start rolling the yellow fringed strip neatly and tightly.
Step 5:
Roll the whole strip and apply glue at the end of the roll to secure it.
Step 6:
Grab the flower cutouts; apply glue in the center of a flower and place another one on top of it.
Step 7:
One by one, glue all four flower cutouts together. Make sure to arrange them nicely on top of each other while gluing.
Step 8:
Finally, glue the rolled fringed paper in the center of the flower to complete the craft.
