Second step is to stack the sheets one on top of the other to make overlaps. Cut the ends of the paper into point or scallops then fold the paper evenly and alternately on both sides. Next, put the pipe cleaners or the fuzzy wire on the center and twist the wire at the bottom to hold the paper together. Make your flower bloom by simply separating sheet one by one and fluffing them out.
