How To Make Easy Poppy Flower Craft
Step 1: Using a pencil, draw six poppy petals on red craft paper and two leaves on green paper. Cut them out.
Step 2: Cut out 3 black circles in decreasing size and a yellow circle for stamen on the poppy flower. For the stem, cut out a green strip of paper.
Step 3: Take the circles and make thin slits along their boundary.
Step 4: Make slits on the outer edge of the poppy petals as well. Curl the petals inwards using a pencil.
Step 5: Cut out a small white circle and glue the poppy petals on it to make a fan shape. Glue the remaining three petals to cover the empty white spaces.
Step 6: Take the black circles and straighten the slits upwards to make a bowl shape. Glue the small circle in the big circle and paste them in the center of the poppy flower.
Step 7: Next, glue the yellow circle on the black circle. Take the last black circle and paste its slits on the yellow circle so that its base is facing outside.
Step 8: To make the flower pot, take brown construction paper and draw a pot on it. Cut it out.
Step 9: Paste the stem on the pot. Glue the leaves on either side of the stem.
Step 10: Glue the flower on the stem and outline the leaves using a felt tip pen. For the final touch, paste a cute heart on the pot to complete the paper poppy flower craft.
And that’s it! Your poppy paper flower craft is ready. This simple flower craft is easy to make and looks just so pretty! Kids can add their creativity in decorating the pot or even making a flower pot of a different shape.
