Spring Flowers

Spring flowers are a beautiful symbol of the season’s arrival, with their vibrant colors and fresh scents filling the air. Daffodils, tulips, crocuses, and other blossoms emerge after the winter chill, offering a cheerful reminder of new beginnings.

Crafting spring flowers, like the crepe paper daffodil, is a wonderful way to celebrate the season and bring the outdoors inside. These handmade flowers capture the essence of spring, adding a burst of color to your home and reminding us of the beauty that comes with warmer weather and longer days.

Four brightly colored rolls of crepe paper—yellow, blue, purple, and red—are arranged on a reflective surface, with the ends of the paper slightly unrolled. The background is light and uncluttered.

How To Make Crepe Paper Daffodils

Start by downloading the daffodil craft template at the bottom of the post. Cut out the templates and trace the stem, leaves, and petals onto the crepe paper, and then pedicel onto a colored paper that you would like for the middle of the daffodil.

Colored paper shapes arranged on a white background, including two long strips (white and teal), three teal leaf shapes, seven white petal shapes, a yellow spiral, and a small white circle.

Cut out each piece of the flower pieces you traced.

A yellow spiral cut from paper is placed on a white surface, with a white flower visible in the top right corner.

Start rolling the spiral cutout piece starting at the outside into the center to create a spiral flower pedicel for the flower.

A white textured leaf shape is glued next to a small white paper circle on a white surface. Nearby, several more white leaves and a yellow spiral paper cutout are visible.

Stretch your crepe paper petals on the middle part. Then start gluing the petals on the circular base.

A white paper flower with six textured petals is positioned on a white background next to a yellow spiral cutout on the right.

Glue all the petals on the circular paper base.

A single strip of white paper with one end cut at an angle lies on a smooth, white surface.

Now take the white paper strip and start rolling it from one corner.

A single, thin, teal-colored plastic strip lies diagonally on a plain white surface.

Wrap the white stick using green crepe paper.

A single twisted piece of teal crepe paper lies diagonally on a white surface, with one end slightly crumpled and bent upwards.

Bend one end of the stem slightly.
