Video tutorial to make paper Lily flower:

Step by step instruction to make paper Lily flower:

Step 1: Download and cut the paper with my template.

There’s a detail instruction in the template, too.

Step 2:  Make the stamen

Use the facial tissue stripe to wrap around the head of wire gauge 26 to make the anther.

Color with a mix of red and brown. We need 5 anthers.

I used masking tape to make the stigma, but now I think that keep using facial tissue to form the head is much easier. Color it with lime green.

Use floral tape to wrap all the stigma and anthers together.

Step 3: Make the petals from printer paper.

Cut, glue, and color the petal as in the video instruction.

Use the round ball stylus and a toothpick to shape the petals.

Step 4: Glue the petals with the stamen.

Glue 3 smaller petals first, then 3 bigger petals outside.

Step 5: Wrap the flower with wire gauge #20 by floral tape

Cut the leaves from green color paper and insert the leaves while wrapping here.

Arrange your flowers with your own styles.

These can be used as your room decor, desk decor.

Or a wedding centerpiece?
