Then this DIY-Instructions are just the thing for you! Learn how to create beautiful daisies and calla lilies from colorful foam sheets. These little works of art are not only only a great eye-catcher, but also a perfect project for relaxed craft afternoons.
Daisies from foam sheets
Cut strips 2.5 cm wide from the yellow foam sheets . Cut these strips in half so that you have several even pieces. Take the white foam sheets-sheet and divide it into four equal strips. Now cut small fringes into these strips. These steps will give your daisies a realistic look. Use two plug wires and carefully wind them together to form a sturdy flower stem. Place the stem on one of the yellow foam rubber strips and roll it up tightly. Fix the beginning and end of the strip with hot glue to ensure a secure hold. Now glue one of the white foam rubber strips to the end of the yellow strip and wrap it tightly around the stem. The end should also be fixed with hot glue. Turn the flower over and blow-dry it gently so that the heat bends the foam sheets outwards.
This gives the petals their characteristic shape.
Calla flowers foam sheets
Download the template and transfer it to foam sheets. Cut it out carefully.
Use matching colors to create a soft color gradient on the flowers. Use dusky pink for the white flower, mix orange and yellow for the red flower and use pink for the purple flower. These colors will give your flower depth and vibrancy. Cut the chenille wire into six equal pieces. As with the daisies, wrap two wires together to form a sturdy flower stem. Apply a strip of hot glue to the center of the bottom end of the flower and attach the stem. Then secure the end of the chenille wire with hot glue too. Glue the sides of the flower together in the middle to imitate the typical calla shape. Carefully blow-dry the flower from the back so that the heat bends the foam sheets slightly outwards and gives the flower an elegant curve.
