Create a fun and colourful spring craft using paper plates and buttons. This simple and creative craft is perfect for kids and seniors and can be used as a decoration or a gift.
Materials you’ll need:
- A paper plate
- Some ribbon or yarn
- Buttons (self-adhesive button stickers are recommended)
- Fine black marker (optional, for outlining the tulips)
- A hole puncher
- Construction or cardstock paper for the tulips
- Glue
- A pencil to sketch the tulips
- Scissors
Instructions:
- Cut a piece of ribbon to your desired length.
- Use a hole puncher to create holes in the edges of the paper plate. Thread the ribbon through the holes slowly, leaving enough ribbon at the end to make a bow.
- Join the two ends of the ribbon by tying a knot and then make a simple bow.
- Place the self-adhesive buttons in vertical lines. If you are using regular buttons and liquid glue, apply the glue and place the buttons in lines.
- Optionally, outline the flowers with a black marker.
- Glue the flowers onto the paper plate.
That’s it! Your paper plate project is now ready.
