When shaping your Crepe Paper Potted Petunias, you’ll discover different ways to make this project completely your own. For example, color is where you can really let your style and creativity shine. In addition to Sangria, Cypress, and White crepe paper for this project, we also used various Copic markers to create those signature petunia tones.  However, feel free to experiment with color combinations that speak to you, your space, or the occasion.

Assembly of your potted petunias is a breeze – especially with the right tools at hand. You’ll use floral wire and tape to assist with structure, while glue will help keep everything in place as you work. A low-temp glue gun works well for quick assembly, but if you’ve got time – craft glue is a great option as well. 

Since this project already includes a display vessel, these Crepe Paper Potted Petunias are ready to show off as soon as the last leaf is wired, taped, or glued into place. Once arranged, these pretty petunias are ready to sit on a desk or bedside table. They’re also a beautiful way to honor someone special this upcoming Mother’s Day or just because.

We love to see your skills and creativity come together, so once your Crepe Paper Potted Petunias are in full bloom, remember to share them with us in our crafters’ community and on social using #MadeWithLia.
