To make a 2.5" flower, use four pieces of 3" square tissue paper.
Stack the papers together and accordian fold them eight times.
Secure with thread in the middle.
Pull the top layer of paper up towards the center forming a cup shape.
Continue with the other layers.
You can add small embelishments in the center of your flower like flower pistils and a pearl brad. Hope you'll try your hand at making making these dimensional flowers.
