This extra large flower makes quite a statement! It can be used in a variety of ways: decorating for special occasions such as weddings, bridal or baby showers, birthdays and more. But, it’s also great for simply decorating a room. You can determine the size of the flower by making more or less of the petals, as well as by adjusting the sizes of the petals. The flower shown was made using large sheets of cardstock, and its finished size is approximately 25” (63.5cm) in diameter.
