Paper Hand Lily Tutorial

May 6th, 2010 by Craftylocks

For this speedy paper craft you need children’s hands to trace around, paper and scissors, tape, and chenille sticks or pipe cleaners to make the stem and stamen.

	The basis of these lilies are hand shapes. So the first step is to trace around a hand and cut the shape out.
	Roll the hand into a cone shape and tape it near the base. Leave a small hole at the bottom of the cone shape.
	Wrap each finger around a pen …
	… to curl the petals
	Twist the end of a green piece of pipe cleaner around the middle of a short piece of pipe cleaner. Fold that short piece up and curl over at each end.
	Push the pipe cleaner stalk through the lily to make the stalk and stamen.

To see these in red have a look at some other Hand Shape Lilies.
