This project will guide you through detailed techniques that result in beautiful, lifelike flowers.  Don't worry if this project feels intimidating; I'll be right there with you during the live session to walk you through every step!

Tulips were once so precious that they were treated as currency during the 17th century. Though this "Tulip Mania" doesn't create quite the same frenzy today, they're still a beloved symbol of beauty and fresh beginnings. They are also among the first flowers to bloom in the springtime, reminding us that winter's long, dark days are merely temporary and life is always waiting to start again. 

Creating these Crepe Paper Double Tulips is a truly artistic endeavor, and I can't wait to teach you the techniques to make them pop! For example, , the key to a realistic double tulip lies in layering different petals and giving them texture. Using double-sided crepe paper, we'll craft beautiful blooms with a soft, natural look. I'll guide you through shaping the petals and leaves and layering the blooms so they stand out with a lovely fullness and dimension

Once you've crafted your Crepe Paper Double Tulips, the possibilities for displaying them are endless! These blooms make beautiful standalone pieces, perfect for a vase on your table or windowsill, bringing the beauty of spring indoors. They also work wonderfully as part of a larger floral arrangement for weddings, special events, or simply to brighten your home.
