of the methods below!Over the river and through the woods, to Kennedy’s room we go!

When I made these with kids, I would have them cut their strips and cut their petals, and then I would have them come over to the “gluing station” so they could have me glue their flower for them.I would just ask them if it looked good to them and if they liked how I was rolling the flower as I went and that way they felt like they were still very much involved in the process.

As kids get to be older and a little more confident with crafting, you can let them try out using the hot glue with one of the lower temperature glue guns that you can get.Be careful though because hot glue is still hot glue even if it’s a little less hot!You’ll know when they’re ready to try it out though, you know your kids.

So you just keep rolling and gluing and rolling and gluing and pretty soon you have yourself a really cute flower!.It’s a pretty impressive end product when you realize just how super easy they are to make!.

To make the really big flower, just keep adding petal strips, wrapping and gluing them around your flower until you have the size you want.

I think I used 4 petal strips for the one pictured here..Here we have Jack’s nursery before:.

Kennedy’s room was so so (so so so) dark:.But it became bright and cheerful with just the flick of a paint brush!.

Our dining room was a weird bright aqua colour, which may be popular now, but the paint was all banged up and was in pretty rough shape..The room is now neutral and elegant thanks to the world’s greatest paint color, a grey called Zeppelin!
