Paper Muffin Cup Flower Craft

Paper Muffin Cup Flower - Toddler Craft Idea

Paper Muffin Cup Flower – Toddler Craft Idea

Today’s paper kids craft idea goes perfectly with the saying “they grow like weeds!” I’m talking about kids – that is!

This morning I measured my son and he has grown nearly an inch since his birthday in February.

I think he is playing catch up since he’s been a shortie since birth. I still can’t believe how fast he is growing! Can we slow it down a bit?

Anyways, back to the toddler friendly craft idea I’m sharing with you all today. We are going to turn your child’s face into a flower.

Well… not literally, silly!

We are going to use some basic items you probably already have in your home, to make a cute flower themed craft. I call it the “Paper Muffin Cup Flower.” This craft can be created all year long or even be turned into a last minute Mother’s Day gift, as well. Plus it’s super easy, even for the littlest in your home to recreate!

So enough chit chat from me – let’s grab our supplies, check out the full tutorial below and make your own! Don’t forget to share pictures of your child’s finished paper muffin cup flower on our Facebook page to see! I’m sure it’s going to turn out beautiful! #gluedtomycrafts

Paper Muffin Cup Flower - Toddler Craft Idea

Craft Supplies:

  • You will need several, large paper muffin cups {or some call them cupcake liners!} colored cardstock paper, school glue, a facial picture of your child, kid friendly scissors and small heart stickers.
  • Completely optional – a large circle punch for a perfect circle of your child’s picture.

Check out our AMAZON storefront for supplies!

Directions:

  • So now for the steps – first pick a few muffin cups you want to use for the flower part. You can use as many as you like. I decided to use four, different colored cups for mine. Just make sure they all stack together nicely.
  • Then if you like, flatten them slightly with your hand and secure them all together with a little bit of glue, in between each. This is the flower bud of the craft.
  • Next up – cut out a flower stem and leaves out of your green cardstock paper.
  • Secure those pieces to another piece of different colored cardstock.
  • Now secure the stacked muffin cup piece from earlier, to the top of the flower stem piece.
  • Next grab your large paper punch or craft scissors & cut your child’s face out of the printed picture. You want it to fit nicely in the circle part of the muffin cup. Go ahead and secure it in place.
  • Finally – add a few heart stickers around the finished flower piece and maybe write a sweet message around it as well. Wouldn’t this be great to add the date in the corner, along with you child’s age & height to go with the saying “They grow like weeds!“
