Poinsettia Paper Flowers – An Easy Christmas Craft

Below is the printable music sheet with the flower petals already drawn on, so all you have to do is copy it to your desktop, print it on either ivory or white card stock and cut the petals out.  You will need six petals for each flower.

Once cut out, use a small paint brush to apply glue to the edges of each petal and then sprinkle the glitter over the glue.  Set aside until completely dry.  Then, punch a hole near one end of each petal.  Feed the petals onto the stamen stem.  Once they are all on the stem, use a bit of hot glue to hold them in place.  I bent the petals a bit to make them look a little more like the real thing.  If you want a longer stem, attach a sturdy floral wire and wrap tightly with floral tape.

You could use these poinsettia paper flowers as ornaments for your Christmas tree, make your own bouquet, or attach them to your Christmas packages.  I know I’m going to keep mine for next year and will probably make some more!  Also, you can see how I used these paper poinsettia flower petals to make a Christmas garland by just hot gluing them together.
