2. Cut out 12-15 pieces of teardrop-shaped crepe paper – roughly 3 cm long.
3. Cut a 1 cm slit along the middle of the bottom end of the teardrops.
4. Add a little glue to the bottom of one of your tear drops.
5. Wrap that piece of crepe paper around the top of the green straw that you made.
6. Take another teardrop and apply glue to the bottom. Fold it in half and wrap the two split sides around the green pipe on the side, but below the top of your first tear drop. Keep the open end of the teardrop facing up.
7. Take another teardrop but this time attach it to the opposite side of the one you just did. Remember to keep rotating sides, and to place each one at even intervals below the one on before. Continue this pattern until the flower is formed.
8. Cut leaf shapes from the green crepe paper.
9. Attach the leaves below the ginger flower on the green stem. Make as many of these leaves as you’d like.
Your ginger flower is now complete!
