Today we use our comic book pages to make paper flowers for the Christmas tree. With a bit of patience the flowers are easy to make.
You need paper, we have used plain office paper in different colors and comic book pages, scissors, glue and a stapler.
Start by cutting the paper into 12 thin strips, about 21×2 cm. We mix colored and patterned paper. Stack them into a pile and staple them together in the center. As you can see in the picture the staples sticks out on the sides. Take a pair of scissors or some other hard thing and fold them gently into the stack. Put some glue above the center. Gently bend the first strip towards the center and hold until the glue has dried.
Then do the same with the other strips until the stack of strips is forming a flower.

The flowers are done and will be in the Christmas tree as soon as we bring it in. We are soon running out of comic book pages, but we still have so many Christmas crafts left to make!
