"Brighten your home with these charming DIY Painted Papier-Mâché Flowers, made entirely from recycled materials! Inspired by a flower art exhibition, this craft uses scrap cardboard, newspaper, and watercolour paints to create beautiful, everlasting blooms. From tulips and daisies to poppies and lavender, each flower is painted by hand and potted in a variety of small containers—tin cans, teacups, and jars. It's an affordable and eco-friendly project that’s perfect for spring and summer. With free templates and simple instructions, it’s suitable for all skill levels. These flowers make lovely home decorations or handmade gifts and are a fantastic way to enjoy flower crafting without worrying about wilting petals!"
