To start your flower, first you must use the pliers (or scissors) to cut the wire in half.





Next use the scissors (or you're hand) to cut the duct tape into a 2X2 inch square.

Step 3: the First Petal Part 2

Next you will fold the square of duct tape over like in the picture below.





Then you will fold it over again so it is like a little triangle on top.

Step 4: the First Petal Part 3

Now the first petal can be hooked on.

First get the wire and stick it onto the duct tape like so.

Then flip the edge over so it won't come loose.

Now you just twist it around and around and stick it on so it looks like a a tube with a hole.


WARNING! If you don't look at the last picture you may have it wrong!!!

Step 5: Again and Again...
