Become a MemberThese Crepe Paper Double Daffodils are a fabulous way to get into the fun and intricate world of crafting paper flowers. Though they may look intimidating, we encourage crafters of all skill levels to give this project a try. While a cutting machine can make the crafting process faster — it's totally optional. You're free to cut these by hand using our PDF template as well. Once you've gathered your tools and materials, you'll be well on your way to creating your own bouquet of beautiful Crepe Paper Double Daffodils.
The Narcissus Erlicheer, also known as the double daffodil, is a particularly beautiful variety. Unlike the single daffodil with its central trumpet, the Erlicheer boasts a double layer of petals, creating a full and luxurious bloom. In the language of flowers, daffodils represent rebirth and new beginnings, making them a fitting choice for this time of year.
To create our realistic double daffodils, we used our extra-fine crepe paper for the petals and double-sided crepe paper for the leaves. We used Pan Pastel to paint both the petals and the centers to give our flowers a bit of depth and dimension. If you're new to PanPastel, don't worry! Take a look at this video tutorial to become an expert in no time!
Once you've created your crepe paper double daffodils, you can display them in a bud vase for a simple yet elegant look. Or, group several blooms together in a larger vase for a more impressive centerpiece. No matter how you choose to display them, these paper daffodils are sure to bring some sunshine to your winter decor.

Hello. I tried to download the SVGs today and only the plant leaves are coming up – no petals.
Thanks,
Krista
Hello Krista! All the pieces (there are many) are there. You can zoom out a bit when you are in design space and see them all.
yesterday I put real bulbs into the garden soil …
I love that!
i found the directions regarding adding the gold spathe on the stem after bundling 5 blooms together. Just needed to read instructions all the way to the end
Thanks
Great!
I don’t see anything in the instructions regarding the spathe and when where to place it.
You can place it under the flowers and at the top of the bundled stems. This will give a nice transition between the thicker bundle and individual bloom stems.
I am having the same issue with a blurry image in the middle of the pattern and only the leaves no petals.
The SVG file has been updated and should work for you now!
I seem to be having issues with downloading the SVG. All I get is leaves, then in the center a a blurred area.No petals.
Hi! I double-checked the SVG and it’s working fine for me. Can you email us a screenshot to hello@liagriffith.com?
Hi, ive uploaded the SGV, but the gold spathe appears to be missing, there is a dark rectangular shape showing instead?
Thank you for letting us know! The error has been fixed, please download the SVG again 🙂
Wow you are talent! I want to do something with kids, do you think we can make it, as a beginners? =)
Hi Alice,
The Narcissus is slightly more advanced because the petals are small, check out our getting started page where we recommend some of our best beginner flowers https://liagriffith.com/getting-started-crepe-paper-flowers/
The SVG file says to print 2 sheets of the petals for 6 stems, but you need 3 sheets printed petals for 6 stems.
Hi Terra,
Thank you for pointing this out! I have updated the SVG to show the proper amount to cut! 🙂
Why does the SVG only have the leaves?
Hi Susan, the SVG has both leaves and petals. If you’re previewing the file, it only shows the leaves, but when you upload the SVG you’ll see it has everything needed to make the flowers.
