Rapeseed blossoms and butterflies

[Easy with tissue paper] Rapeseed blossoms and origami butterfly wall decoration

This is a decoration that arranges rapeseed blossoms, finished with a soft look by layering tissue paper.

Make each flower by carefully stacking the tissue paper to add volume, bringing out a soft, rounded feel.

Instead of using just one stem, line up rapeseed blossoms of varying heights to further emphasize both beauty and fullness.

Adding butterfly motifs will also convey the warmth of spring, which is highly recommended.

Cherry Blossoms and Rapeseed Flowers

[For senior care facilities] Easy cherry blossoms and rapeseed flower wall decoration

Spring is the season when flowers of every color are in full bloom, with not only cherry blossoms but also canola flowers brightening the scenery.

This is a three-dimensional decoration that captures a spring landscape and a sense of elation, with canola blossoms blooming around the cherry trees.

The key is to make each piece out of tissue paper; by adding firm creases while shaping them into flowers, you achieve a soft, dimensional look.

Finish by placing soft pink blossoms on a sturdy cherry tree and arranging yellow canola flowers around it.

You might also highlight spring by adding decorations like fallen petals or butterflies, not just the flowers in bloom.
