Well, I love after eights and I usually get loads of thin paper I don't want to get rid of. Soo...here's a quick project to recyce them, plus these flowers smell wonderfully!

Here's what you need. You need 4 for 1 flower.
Open it with scissors or a ruler.
It looks like this.
Fold it.
Fold one corner to the centre.
Do passage 5 for the other 3s.
Gather the two oppposite sides, like in a bow.
Use thread to close it.
It should look like that.
Repeat steps 1-9 for another piece of paper. Attach the two "bows" with thread, you now have obtained a half flower.
DO passage 1-10 again.
Pick your chopstick and cover one extremity with double sided adhesive tape.
Like this.
Stick one flower, then stick the other one on the other side.
Attach one bead for side with the hot glue. You're done!
