Cupcake Liner Flowers

Cupcake liner flowers are a delightful and creative way to add a touch of whimsy to any occasion! These adorable decorations are simple to make and can brighten up your space in seconds. By layering colorful cupcake liners of various sizes and securing them with glue, you can craft a beautiful bouquet that will never wilt. Whether you're hosting a party or looking for a fun craft project with kids, cupcake liner flowers are guaranteed to bring a smile to everyone's face with their charm and versatility.

Supplies Needed

• A variety of colorful cupcake liners
• several sticks or wooden skewers
• hot glue gun
• scissors

STEP ONE

Using FOUR cupcake liners at a time, fold and cut them following the pictorial above. You’re basically just folding the liners in half, and then in half again to create a small fan. Next, cut patterns on the long, round edge like you would a paper snowflake. You can do this however you’d like with curvy or straight lines (I did a variety of both).

You’ll also want to cut a small chunk off the pointy end to create a hole large enough to allow them to easily slide onto your sticks.

STEP TWO

Loop the liners onto the end of a stick, and then one cupcake liner at a time, hot glue the bases down, pinching them together to create what looks like a flower.

STEP THREE

Once all the cupcake liners are attached to the sticks, your bouquet of flowers is complete! Arrange them in a vase or container of your choice, and you’ll have a vibrant and eye-catching centerpiece for any table. Alternatively, you can display them on an entry table, coffee table, kitchen island or fireplace mantel to add a pop of color to your home decor.

HELPFUL TIPS

• I recommend cutting no more than FOUR cupcake liners at a time because anything more than that is difficult to cut. However, this is the minimum you’ll need to create a full, nice-looking flower.
• Get creative and try mixing different colors and patterns of cupcake liners into a single flower.
• I chose sticks from my yard that had several end points, so some of my sticks had 2 or 3 flowers attached to each one. I think this made for a more realistic looking bouquet! It also looks attractive to use sticks in a variety of lengths with irregular curves.
• You could optionally add embellishments to these flowers such as glitter or ribbon, or even dab on some craft paint for added texture and color.
• After making this project, I was thinking it would have been nice if I had added some leafy green colored cupcake liners to the mix. You could pinch them together and randomly glue them along the sticks to construct something that resembles foliage.
• In addition to home decor, these paper flowers would be beautiful as a party decoration displayed as a centerpiece for just about any occasion. Simply choose colors that are fitting to the holiday or party theme.
