Product Information

I leave you with the poetry of William Wordsworth, and his poem about the beautiful spring flower which is the daffodil: Perhaps you are looking for something a little more challenging or intricate, then these are the ones for you. I particularly love the free em broidery pattern. My choice would definitely be those pipe cleaner daffodils, with the felt wreath coming in a close second! The instructions feature handy photos to demonstrate to your children what each step of the craft should look like. At the end of the craft, they should have their own beautiful daffodil wreath that can be used as a classroom decoration, or taken home and given to somebody as a springtime gift. These crafts might need a little more preparation but are super fun for little ones. The hands-on crafts focus on the process rather than the outcome making them fabulous for toddlers and young preschoolers.

Uplevel your table decor this Easter season by making your own candle holders in the shape of daffodils. I love how the pipe cleaners are twisted into simple spirals to made the petals and middle of this iconic flower. I should say, that I’m by no means an expert in anything to do with flowers or plants and I totally admit that I even had to google how to soak the oasis for the flowers before I started this project. But, as I got quite a few questions on how to make this wreath I thought I’d share this super easy guide. Seriously, it takes minutes and if I could make it, anyone can! Do NOT glue this next layer to the bottom green – just glue the four pieces of it to each other along the overlap of each piece.

Andreja Vucajnk from Easy Peasy and Fun has shared her secrets for crafting these cute paper daffodils with spiral middles. Daffodil flowers first start to show towards the end of winter. For many people, this makes the daffodil a symbol of spring. Like many symbols of spring, they also symbolise new beginnings, rebirth and hope. Can your class think of any other springtime symbols? This fab tutorial by Laura Howard contains everything to need to know to replicate this felt and yarn spring wreath. Cut the narcissus so that the stems are approximately 8cm in length. Make sure you keep the stems in water until the moment you are ready to attach them. After you attach all your daffodils, add any extra leaves you want by gluing them to the wrapped stems.

Grab the template from The House that Lars Built and then either hand-cut the daffodil shapes or use your Cricut or other cutting machine to do the hard work for you. To change the paper size, go into the dropdowns over on the left side of the screen and choose the paper size that you want to use. You need to change it for every single colour. General Crafts 11 Delightful Daffodil Crafts for St David’s Day Does anything show that it’s time for spring any better than the beautiful daffodil? In honour of this yellow and orange springtime beauty, here are eleven daffodil crafts to inspire your crafting this season. The colour of the daffodil also has its own symbolism. The bright yellow colour of the flower petals makes them a symbol of positivity and joy. Position the final four green pieces on top of the wreath and glue them together where the pieces overlap.Gently stretch sections along the scalloped top of the trumpet so that it has some movement, and use your index finger to stretch the base a little bit so that it looks more like a cup. Keep wrapping the stem to the bottom of the wire. Tear off the paper, add a dot of glue to the paper strip, and secure it.

Move all the flowers to one side, as well as the top layers of the green until you are left with only the four very bottom sections. When adding the foam pads to the relevant layers, make sure you add some in the middle of the pieces of card so it give stability to the middles. If you don’t add any foam pads in the middles then it can “sag” under the weight of the other layers which doesn’t look as good. To make the daffodils for this daffodil wreath, you’ll need egg boxes. You can either find the egg boxes yourself, or ask your children to bring in their own. This craft is a great way of stopping egg boxes from going to waste, in fact, why not use this craft alongside a lesson about recycling? There is a fantastic selection of crafts here for kids of all ages. Some will work on their motor skills such as the pipe cleaner ones but others are perfect for sensory seekers such as the clay pots. Make sure your moss is damp so the daffodils can absorb moisture from it. Pad out your twine wreath base with clumps of moss, attaching it using wire. You want the moss to create a firm, living wreath structure ready to add your flowers to. You can buy this part ready made if you'd prefer – see products above.

Using the template as a guide, cut out petals, trumpets/tubes, and stigmas from your yellow, white, and orange crepe paper. Each flower needs six petals, one trumpet, and one stigma. Your kit has plenty of paper to cut out seven flowers. Fold the stigma paper in half so that the short sides touch and then glue and wrap around one of the short pieces of wire.
