Step #1:

Trace out three hand prints on the white paper. Cut these out. Set aside.

Take three green pipe cleaners and attach a yellow pipe cleaner to one end. Curl the yellow one into a “U” around the green one. This is your stem and center yellow.

Step #3:

Take each hand print and curl then into a cone. Glue them.

Step #4:

Curl each finger outwards for petals.

Step #5:

Put the green pipe cleaner through the hole of the flower pulling down until the yellow is in the center of the handprint.
