Step 3: Arranging Your Flowers

Glue the rolled up flowers on the center of the smaller flower cut outs.

Now fold your leaves in half lengthwise and open them back up. This will create a leave-like line down the center.

Step 4: Assemble Your Watering Can

Now gather your watering can and semi-circle cutouts.

Glue the semi-circle to the top of the watering can, giving you a space to glue down your flowers above the watering can opening.

Step 7: Glue Down your Leaves

Now you can glue down your leaves in between your paper flowers. Try to use them to completely fill up the rest of your semi-circle so it doesn't show.

Once your craft is fully assembled, allow it to dry for a few hours.
