Thought I would share this with you since I have had so many compliments on it. I made it with coffee filters and a hot glue gun. The flower measures about 24 inches across.

Well it was quite easy. I started with a large cardboard circle. Then I hot glued coffee filters to the outside edge over aping each filter a little bit. I just kept over lapping and working in spiral fashion to the center. The very center is 5 coffee filters twisted together to form a flower blossom. Then I glued that blossom to the center. I punched 2 holes in the back side and threaded a pipe cleaner through to use as a hanger. Just over lap and stagger each filter as you glue them in place. Hope this makes sense and helps you Carolyn.
Forgot to mention flatten the filters before gluing.

No they are all flat except the very center blossom which could be anything you want.
