Noren Cosmos made with tissue paper

✄ [Flower Paper] Easy! String Curtain Made with Tissue Paper - Cosmos

Let me introduce a noren-style cosmos decoration made from tissue paper that will brighten up your room.

Fold and cut the tissue paper to create petal pieces.

By adding curves or cutting jagged edges, you can make more three-dimensional flowers.

Hang the string on the tension rod, then attach the petals and stamen parts to the string.

Form small loops in the string and thread the petals through as you go.

It’s also important to adjust the shapes so the petals don’t overlap.

Gradient Cosmos

Kimie Gangi Autumn Wall Decorations: “How to Make Gradient Cosmos” – Simple, Beautiful, with Leaf Templates Included

Cosmos flowers often flutter delicately and come in vivid colors.

Let’s try making a paper craft that captures the feel of cosmos flowers.

We’ll use medium-weight colored quality paper, which has more body than copy paper and is just the right thickness for folding and layering.

After cutting the paper into petal shapes, add a gradient.

Create the gradient by smudging crayon with your finger.

The key is to wrap your finger with plastic wrap when making the gradient.

This method seems enjoyable for older adults as well.

Layer the petals to form a cosmos flower.

Make some leaves and attach them to the flower to finish it off even more beautifully.

Attach the cosmos flowers as well to complete a dazzling cosmos wall decoration.

Changing the colors of the cosmos will make it even more vibrant.
