I realized a while ago that paper plate crafts were going to be a frequent activity in our home, so I bought the plates in bulk. Between all those plates and my decent supply of craft paints, I never have to worry about having enough craft supplies to keep my kids busy! I was even thinking about having a crafting party with their friends. Considering how easy it is to customize these cute paper plate flowers, I think this is definitely a craft that I’ll feature at the party!

Carefully glue your straw onto the back of the flowers to look like stems.
6. Cut out leaves from your green card stock and glue them onto the green straws. If you’re having a hard time getting the leaves to stick with craft glue, you may want to use hot glue (set to a low temperature, so you don’t melt the plastic straws).

Then your paper plate flowers are finished and ready to be displayed! Hang them in your kids’ room, or put a green floral foam block in a pot and stick the straw stems into the foam.

Have your kids done any fun crafts this spring?
