So, a little while back, I needed to make crepe paper flowers for a little mexican fiesta I was having. Here's how they turned out.
I also decided to "recycle" them and put them in a plastic pot that I am shipping to my 6 year old niece for her 7th birthday in a week.

Those turned out great! They look like a lot of work..... how long did each flower take? Our Cub Scout Blue and Gold Celebration is going to be themed "Aloha" so I'm thinking it'd be great to have the kids make leis....

They really aren't too difficult to make. Since the flowers for leis are muhc smaller than what I made, I think it would take just a couple of minutes for each flower to make. I bought sheets of crepe paper and cut them down so i would have different sizes for flowers. For the leis, I would just use regular crepe paper streamers to make the flowers.
I don't think it would be too difficult to actually make

Oh! I like the idea of using the streamers - less prep work!

Very cute!! We were thinking about you and the flowers when we saw the huge one's in the Mexico pavillion this weekend. I was wondering how they turned out, looks like you did a great job.
