I've gathered a few of my favourite flower crafts here. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did.

We got so carried away with these! Very addictive. The house was covered in colourful paper flowers. Very handy for collages and making cards.
Just one toilet paper roll needed. We made the flowers with tissue paper... sticking pieces on the stems and then scrunching them up so they looked more flower like.
Then we tried paper hearts, which look like tulips!
This meadow scene is simple too - just some zigzag cuts in a toilet paper roll to make the grass, then add any flowers or wildlife you like. You could add things you spotted on a walk, so your little scene tells a story.
Then there's the classic egg carton flowers. You can't go wrong with them. The cups and the cones from an egg carton are perfect for flower shapes.
Here's our Spring Flower Posy
And a sweet bouquet of roses
Egg carton cups are also great for making poppies.
This little bouquet of roses made from cereal box card, paper and an egg carton cone makes a sweet little fridge magnet.
These Tissue Paper Peonies are fun to do and look so pretty.
Printing flowers with stuff you already have at home is a great activity, and perfect for making cards for Mums or loved ones. You can do potato printing, use a toilet paper roll pressed flat to make a petal shape, or you could try some bubble-wrap flowers.
We used bubble wrap to print wisteria
and Cow Parsley
and last but not least, a tiny bouquet of flowers made from an egg carton cone, just the thing for a doll's house!
