-Twist a piece of wire around the center of your stack of tissue paper. **(Remember to make the piece of wire long as you'll need the excess to wrap around your head band)***

-Fan out the petals around the center to create your flower (Tissue papers have two layers, if you want the flower to look fuller, you can also saperate the layers of each paper ).
