I found a tutorial for the small version – I cant wait to try it out and make a super large version like THIS one on ETSY – Check it out!


Small version supply list:
Re-use your plastic straws for this craft!

First fold the upper part of a yellow straw as shown to become the stamen and stem. Tie it with green thread. After that cut a white straw with a cutter and open it into a strip. Then make cuts in half of its width and apply double tape to the lower uncut part lengthwise. Then start rolling this length of cut straw around the yellow stamen and make a flower. Cover the lower part of the yellow straw with green floral tape to become the stem. Cut some leaves from green crepe paper or a straw and glue them to the stem. Complete the flower bouquet with more colored straw flowers and arrange the bouquet in a bowl or vase.
Have your girl scouts gather these supplies for a service project… Or this would make a good gift for a tween getting her first period!
