Need a last minute Valentines gift or simply something to add onto your romantic present? These nifty handmade lollipop tulips from the Oh Happy Day blog will get you out of a pickle.
The materials couldn't be simpler, grab some lollipops and some crepe paper, tape, glue and scissors and you're good to go. What you'll need to do to create these lovlies for your sweet is to start folding the crepe paper and make some petal shape templates. Then you'll need to start wrapping crepe paper around the base or 'stem' and tease the petals out at the top to create a beautiful blooming flower. You can keep repeating this process until your flower is as pretty or big as you want it be. Make sure to cut off any stray bits at the end and add a touch of glue to keep it all in place.
