Make Something Monday- Coffee Filter Flowers Craft
For our Make Something Monday craft this week, my daughter and I made coffee filter flowers (my son is with grandma this week).
These little flowers were so easy and so much fun, my five-year-old was pretty much able to do this one all on her own.
Materials needed for Coffee Filter Flowers:
- Coffee Filters
- Washable Markers
- Spray Bottles
- Pipe Cleaners
Instructions:
Color the coffee filters with the markers.
Spray the filters with water.
Lay them out to dry and watch the colors run together. (They dry really fast in the sun!)
Optional: Put on a pretty headband and pose with your dry coffee filters. 😉
Fold the coffee filters into fourths. You can experiment with different folds for different looks.
Pinch the bottom of the coffee filter and wrap the end of a pipe cleaner around the pinched area.
Tada! You’ve got a coffee filter flower! Make a bunch for a pretty bouquet.
Don't miss any more posts!
Those are so fun! Thanks for linking up this week!

These flowers are too cute! This is a much easier technique than I've seen in the past….thanks so much!
Such a CUTE and beautiful ideas!! I could see my girls and I getting lost with fun creating some of those flowers!
Thank you so very much for sharing this at The DIY Dreamer.. From Dream to Reality! 🙂
Fun! I love the different possibilities coffee filters have. Just yesterday my daughter and I made a butterfly. I think she would love making flowers as well. Just so you know, I featured you on today's Show Off Saturday!

What a great idea. I found your post via the It's a Keeper link up. I have linked in a beef dish.
Have a lovely day.
So fun!! I love them! Thank you for sharing at Sharing Saturday!!
Oh, this looks like so much fun! My toddler has been obsessed with flowers lately–I might be able to assist her in making these!
(If you're interested, I'd love you to link this up at my Teaching Time for Toddlers!
We used the same idea in the fall and cut the paper into leaf shapes and hung on the windows. a couple are still there actually 🙂
So fun! I am going to pin this so I will have for a rainy day to do with my kids.
Fun–I love that the kids get to be involved in every part of this.
My daughter, who is in pre-school came home with one of these just yesterday! When I saw it, I thought that it was a coffee filter dipped in colored water. She told me that she used markers for it, and I was kind of surprised by it. Now I see how it was done! Such a clever idea!
Cool! I know what I'm going to do tomorrow with the kid!
You have the best ideas!
