| | Here is the link to the illustrated step-by-step instructions for making my giant tissue paper Sunflowers. Spelling out all the steps make them look a little complicated at first but after making a couple you will be able to whip them out in about 5 or 6 minutes each. If you have any problems or questions after giving them a try please feel free to PM me for help. http://www.imagestation.com/album/pictures.html?id=2091291450

| | The only problem I had in making these was readily finding brown tissue paper. I had seen it around in the past but of course when I needed it I could not find it. Oriental Trading had some so I added it to our VBS order. Another option which I purchased from a dollar store before finding the OT brown was a dark metallic gold tissue that looks brownish. I will probably still use it on a few of them. Oh, and don't use crepe paper to make these. I learned that the hard way for Bug Safari. The crepe paper flowers drooped beyond recognition in a matter of hours because of the humid weather! The tissue ones held up beautifully all week long and even got passed on to several other churches.
