Jonquil flowers have such a light and happy look to them. This isn’t surprising considering they belong to the same family as daffodils. You may be thinking… Don’t daffodils bloom during spring? Why are you crafting them during December? Well, we have a reason for it! Since daffodils symbolize new beginnings, and we’re very near to a new year, we think it’s the perfect time to craft these flowers. And that’s the beauty of paper flowers! You can make any flower you want at any time and enjoy them forever. So even though it’s wintertime here in Portland, I’m going to show you how to make these crepe paper jonquil flowers using two colors of crepe from my Secret Garden Collection.
Tranquil Jonquil
Light, airy, and delicate… These crepe paper jonquil flowers are like a breath of fresh air! Our new Secret Garden pack of crepe paper includes the pattern you need to make this flower. This way, you can get the crepe paper you need and start crafting right away! If you have some extra-fine crepe paper you want to useāand you’re a memberāyou could also just download the pattern at the end of this post.
For those of you with a Cricut Maker, you can download the SVG file below. There’s also a PDF template for those of you cutting your crepe paper jonquil flowers by hand. Once you’ve gathered your craft tools and materials, watch my video tutorial below to see how I craft these flowers. If you have any questions, let me knowāhappy crafting! ~Lia and team

I am very new at paper flowers so I am not sure how to attach the leaves on the jonquil. Is there a video somewhere else to show me? Thank you!

I have the Secret Garden extra fine crepe paper, which includes template for the Jonquil. How can I get the template for the leaves?
Hi Debbie, we have added the pattern for the leaf in the post for you! š
Iām thinking of buying a Cricut. Do any of them, other than Maker, cut crepe paper?
No, the Maker is the only Cricut machine that will cut crepe. It’s such a great machine!
