Directions:

• First things first – download and print the FREE provided flower file, listed in the supply list above.
• Print one flower printable per gift. Feel free to print and use our printable however you like but please only use it for personal or classroom use.
• Once the printable is printed on the white cardstock, go ahead and color the flower however you like. Go to town on this step and really make it your own!
• When done, use your scissors to trim out the flower. Discard excess paper.
• Next, use a large glue dot to secure the decorated paper flower to a green jumbo popsicle stick.
• Follow that up by using a glue dot {or two} to secure the gift card to the center of the flower. Set it aside.
• Now grab your terra cotta pot and playdough.
• Open up the playdough, discard the lid and place the tub inside the terra cotta pot.
• Take your newly made “flower” and stick it inside the playdough, so it stands up nicely.
• Add any other embellishments you see fit and gift it away proudly!

Make it your own:

If playdough is not your thing, you can also use small decorate rocks or styrofoam to make the paper flower stand on it’s own. I just happened to have playdough on hand when I came up with this tutorial 🙂 I also felt the small tub of playdough was super easy to slide inside and later pull out with ease {in case the receiver wants to reuse the pot down the road!}

Don’t want to do a gift card? You can also add a small round picture of your child, to the center of the flower OR skip the “adding anything” part and just have children follow the crafting steps above & gift it as is!

One last tip – if children are feeling EXTRA crafty, they can also decorate the terra cotta pot with various craft paints and glitter for a fun custom touch that is sure to wow!
