The heavier crepe paper is great for holding the shape of these larger petals, and it is a great pick for those jumping into their first crepe paper craft, as it's exceptionally user-friendly.

However, we encourage you to utilize whatever crepe paper you have readily available. Just keep in mind that not all crepe papers are created equal, so the results may vary. But, don't let that stop you! No matter what kind of crepe paper you use, we've designed this flower to turn out absolutely beautiful.

You can either stock up in our shop or use crepe and materials from your craft stash. We want you to make use of what you have on hand. And hey, during the video, we'll even throw in some alternative options to keep things fun and flexible.

Let's get crafty, my friend! Hit that play button, and let's make some magic happen with crepe paper!

Remember, you can watch the video as many times as you like and pause if you want to do a make-along.
